On The Listening Post this week: The UK's left-wing Labour Party is facing down a right-leaning British media with just weeks until the election. Plus, the media black hole in Sinai, Egypt. Balanced or biased?

The silence in Sinai For the past three years Egyptian forces have been fighting an ISIL offshoot in the Sinai peninsula and all the while, the government of Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has kept a tight lid on the story. Having already jailed dozens of journalists, Sinai has become a black hole for news. Reporting that deviates from official government information has been criminalized under an anti-terror law leaving the sole remaining narrative one of military success and heroism trumpeted across all forms of pro-government media. The Listening Post’s Tariq Nafi reports on the stories going untold in Sinai.
