Jewish guests staying at a Travelodge hotel in London have expressed their shock and horror after being confronted with a "Free Palestine" message on their rooms' televisions.
What does it add to the reporting that “two Jewish guests” doesn’t already?
This is a media criticism angle question - think about why a rag like this would say “visibly” and what emotion that intends to stir. Why does it matter when they’re interacting with a faceless computer system that doesn’t know they’re “visibly Jewish”? Why should we care whether they choose to outwardly express their faith or not? Does it make them more or less worthy “victims”?
What did they mean by this
They just came back from performing Fiddler on the Roof.
Probably dressed in typical religious attire?

And so on.
Because two visibly Rastafari people probably wouldn’t be crying about a free Palestine message?
