==History==

HonestReporting was founded in October 2000 by Shaul Rosenblatt, founder and head of [[Aish Hatorah]]-United Kingdom in response to controversy over the [[Tuvia Grossman photograph]] at the outbreak of the [[Second Intifada]]. The episode is often cited by those who accuse the media of having an anti-Israel bias, and was the impetus for the founding of HonestReporting.<ref name=":6" /><ref>{{Cite news|date=2000-10-06|title=Carnage for the Cameras|work=[[The Wall Street Journal]]|url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB970792194386173971|access-date=September 30, 2021|archive-date=September 30, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210930220542/https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB970792194386173971|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last=Koltermann|first=Felix|title=Fotoreporter im Konflikt: Der internationale Fotojournalismus in Israel/Palästina|publisher=transcript Verlag|year=2017|location=Bielefeld|pages=25 n.3}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=The Photo that Started it All|url=https://honestreporting.com/the-photo-that-started-it-all/|access-date=September 30, 2021|website=Honest Reporting|archive-date=October 3, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211003070124/https://honestreporting.com/the-photo-that-started-it-all/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="Rosenblum" />
