RSS feeds often publish the first version of an article without any subsequent updates or corrections. I was surprised to see the author of a report from Syria on my Israel news feed from The Guardian:
Yes, the author is one “Shimon Peres”.
A look at the full article on The Guardian website reveals that the author is actually Nour Ali, a pseudonym for a journalist in Damascus.
Is The Guardian really that obsessed by Israel that the first pseudonym they came up with was that of Israel’s president?
