Media Matters & Israel
I noticed that Media Matters for America (www.mediamatters.org), who normally cover a broad range of disinformation and spin in the MSM, seem to enforce a total radio silence on anything related to Israel.

Carter's book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid" predictably generated the usual knee-jerk condemnations from both the MSM and various organizations. On the face of it, this would be admirably suited for review by MM. However, their silence on the subject is deafening, even though they reported in the past on Carter concerning Iran.

So naturally I searched in their database to dig up stories about Israel in general, but surprisingly none came up.

Can anyone explain their curious silence?
