    I get why this is here but I think the comment he makes is a good call out of how the media uses things like passive voice (the suspect was struck by a bullet vs. police shot the suspect) to affect perception of the story. “Food hasn’t entered Gaza” vs. “Israel blocks food into Gaza.”

    Edit to add: This is yet another example I just saw.
