The Zionist Organization of America condemned CBS News for instructing its reporters not to refer to Jerusalem in a truthful manner.

“The Zionist Organization of America is appalled and condemns CBS News Senior Director of Standards and Practices Mark Memmott who instructed CBS News journalists not to refer to Jerusalem as being in Israel or as Israel’s capital,” ZOA National President Morton A.

“CBS News is ignoring that the U.S. Congress recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital in 1995, when Congress passed the Jerusalem Embassy Act, by an overwhelmingly vote of 93-5 in the U.S. Senate and 347-37 in the U.S. House.”
