Yeah, it's about Israel, yawn. But it brings up a very important point about media conflict of interest in general. The article raises the question of whether or not an Israeli Jew has a natural inside advantage when reporting about Israel.
The same question can be asked about American reporters reporting about the government in America. Will a reporter that insults the President ever be invited to a White House press conference? Will politicians and government workers ever share important information with anti-government reporters? I don't think so.
