The corrupt media is apparently hiring Hamas propagandists all over the middle-east. This includes NBC and Mirvat al-Azzeh, who has been glorifying Hamas after being hired by NBC on October 21st, less than three weeks after the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel. Now she’s been arrested.
A Palestinian freelancer working for NBC News was arrested in Israel on suspicion of inciting terror and identifying with a terrorist organization, according to local reports.
Mirvat al-Azzeh, who lives in East Jerusalem, was jailed Thursday after sharing four recent Facebook posts regarding Hamas’ sneak attack on Israel on Oct. 7 that killed more than 1,200 people, according to the Jerusalem Post.
It’s unclear what al-Azzeh, 45, wrote in those posts, though police described them at a hearing at the Jerusalem Magistrate Court as “inciting and glorying the horrible acts committed against civilians,” per the outlet.
NBC, owned by Comcast, said Monday it has cut ties with the journalist.
“Before we recently retained Marwat Azza for services as a freelance producer, we were not aware of her personal social media activity that provided the basis for the Israeli investigation,” an NBC spokesperson told The Post, using an alternate spelling of her name.
“We understand the material under investigation is not related to any services she provided to NBC News.”
Her most recent byline on Nov. 12 reported that newborns at the al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City were dying as the facility ran out of resources.
NBC News had hired Azzeh as a freelance producer around Oct. 21, according to an NBC source close to the situation.
