Sky News have in the last 24 hours or so given a masterclass in how dishonest mainstream media outlets can be, having altered headline footage regarding the conduct of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans in Amsterdam ahead of and following their match with Dutch club Ajax, where they deservedly lost 5-0 just for the record.
As has been shown virally across social media, because Sky News didn’t take it down fast enough, having actually done their job, done good journalism and reported the truth, when many other media outlets were absolutely not, that footage got taken down and altered not one, but twice.
The original video clip features Sky News reporter Alice Porter discussing the actions of Maccabi fans ahead of their match against Ajax ripping down Palestinian flags from buildings. Ahead of the match, fans were heard chanting racist slogans, singing anti arab songs. Before the match there was a minute’s silence held for the Spanish flood victims in Valencia, which Maccabi fans disrupted, again chanting, singing and even letting off fireworks.
