DEVINE: “Axios reported that you had a phone call with Bibi Netanyahu in which you were angry with him … Is that true?” TRUMP: “I was a little bit perturbed at his constant fighting with Lebanon … I said, Bibi we’ve got to stop this.”

I wanted to follow up on this Judy Woodruff clip after I confirmed something. In this clip, Woodruff said that reporting—without citing which reporting—had revealed that former President Trump had been pushing Prime Minister Netanyahu not to accept a hostage deal because that would help Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign. Obviously, this was a major allegation. It would mean that Netanyahu was sacrificing the lives of hostages and the security of Israel for Donald Trump’s candidacy and that Donald Trump was trying to keep the hostages, and civilians in Gaza, in harm’s way for political purposes. When people pushed back against her, Woodruff tweeted that she had relied on Axios and Reuters reporting on the matter but had missed that Trump and Netanyahu had denied this reporting. She apologized for the oversight. But her tweet was inaccurate. As I noted last week, Axios and Reuters never reported that Netanyahu was being urged by Trump not to take a hostage deal. They had just reported that Trump and Netanyahu spoke about Gaza. But to be sure, I went back to check a few things and also asked Axios for comment. First, the Reuters report that Woodruff cited was just a pickup of an Axios story. The Axios story Woodruff cited had been updated to reflect Netanyahu’s denial that he and Trump ever discussed Gaza and a hostage deal. (I have linked to both reports in this thread) A spokesperson for Axios confirmed that they NEVER reported that Trump was said to have been discouraging Netanyahu from taking the deal. Not only were Woodruff’s on-air comments inaccurate, but her apology tweet also said that Axios (and Reuters) reported something that they never did. Neither publication even stepped into the area that she suggested. I have followed up with PBS for comment.
