What Are Ben White and Electronic Intifada Hiding From? By Aigle Media • December 2011 • Views: 700 A few days ago, there was a disturbance in both the Blogosphere and the Twitterverse. (It was pretty bad, Ben Kenobi was nearly doubled over in agony.) The disturbance began when that pillar of the journalistic community, The Electronic Intifada, published an article by Ben White (another pillar of said community), assailing a piece written by CAMERA’s Alex Safian, who in turn was calling the New York Times to account for a factual error made by its stalwart, Ethan Bronner. Safian’s piece by the way, prompted a correction from the New York Times. Safian has tried twice to post a response in the comments section underneath White’s article. The first (unsuccessful) attempt triggered Electronic Intifada’s spam filter, prompting Safian to post again, this time using a verizon email account. That response has yet to appear on EI’s website.
