Just Journalism (JJ) is a media flak group which aims to: "promote accurate and responsible reporting about Israel in the British media." By the date of its oldest reports, it seems that JJ originated only after May 2008. JJ publishes a running commentary of articles about journalism appearing on a daily basis, it produces longer reports on a particular theme, e.g., the coverage of Israel at 60, and it aims to put pressure on the BBC and similar media by finding contradictions in its charter and their coverage of Israel. JJ is strong on pushing the "balance" argument to criticize coverage, i.e., if Israelis aren’t quoted or given a chance to voice their opinions, then an article is labelled: "IMBALANCE OF VIEWS". It is also evident that JJ's reports are meant to be used by Zionist organizations in the UK to lobby for more Israeli-centric reporting.

London Review of Books
In November 2010, Just Journalism published an 'study' which purports to expose 'an entirely one-sided, fringe narrative, paid for by British taxpayers’ money via Arts Council funding.' The report adds: 'Despite Britain’s alliance with Israel, public money has been used to pay extreme opponents of Israel to pen articles demonising the Jewish state.'[1]
