Declassified UK has revealed that several mainstream media editors in Britain met with Aviv Kohavi, who had recently stepped down as the top military officer in Israel, a month into the genocide in Gaza. Guardian editor Katherine Viner, BBC director of news content Richard Burgess, and Financial Times editor Roula Khalaf all met with Kohavi despite the atrocities Israeli occupation forces were committing at the time.

Answer is pretty obvious.

Either they do not believe it is a genocide. Or they are working to convince everyone they believe it is not.

Either way both are not reporting it as such. So avoiding such interviews would be hypocritical of them.

Its a bit like asking farrage why he dosent change his name to dickhead. Weather he believes he is one. Or just want you to think not. Nothing he's ever done would suggest its likely to make decisions based on admitting it.

Because they have to align the propaganda so people believe in their independent media.

Exactly! This is a big reason why all corporate media still endlessly states Hamas killed 1200 Israelis 10/7, while it's now known Israel used the Hannibal Directive and were responsible for at least a few hundred of the deaths. This was even stated by the man in change of the Israeli military at the time too...

Because it’s OUR rules based international order not THE rules based international order. The head of the ICC was literally told that the ICC is only there to prosecute African leaders.

Don’t make me say it. I can’t handle the blowback. I’m on my 4th account.

Zionists controlling all mainstream media turns out not to be a conspiracy after all.

I mean journalists meeting with people is normal. The question is why they were meeting.
