CAMERA-UK

BBC Watch, CiF Watch and UK Media Watch have all now been subsumed in CAMERA-UK.

According to its own account:

CAMERA-UK (formerly UK Media Watch and BBC Watch) is the UK division of the US based Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), the 65,000 member media monitoring and research organization founded in 1982. CAMERA UK is dedicated to promoting fair, accurate and balanced coverage of Israel in the British media – challenging inaccurate, skewed and often inflammatory characterisations of Israel that mislead news consumers and policy makers – and often fuels anti-Jewish racism. Like our parent organisation, CAMERA-UK doesn’t just monitor the media for bias, but pro-actively engages with journalists and editors to challenge false or misleading claims about Israel. This method has proved extremely successful, garnering dozens of substantive corrections each year to articles and op-eds in the British media which are in violation of the accuracy clause of the Editors’ Code of Practice.
