The article discusses the impression among some of the Jewish community that the coverage of news in Israel by the "New York Times" newspaper is biased against the interests of Israel. The author comments on reporter David K. Shipler's receipt of hate mail based on his reporting from Israel and who is not Jewish. Topics include the newspaper's increased recognition of the Palestinian situation and its connection to Israel's creation, the influence of Israeli groups critical of its government, and the reportage of several journalists including Jeffrey Goldberg, Deborah Sontag, and Ethan Bronner.
