the predicament was that Coates was being let on mainstream TV with views on Israel that are normally not allowed. so sure, be tough. but also be tough on Israel's supporters who dominate the coverage. or allow all views on TV and be the same level of critical to everyone.
it's like the college protests and the presidents facing scrutiny in Congress. they had allowed pro Palestinian protests but always been more critical of conservative voices. just be fair the whole time.
