Gaza gets 100 times the coverage in the US media, coverage equals awareness.
You are referring to what amounts to an individual editorial opinion which may or may not reflect reality and in varying degrees. For example Im sure you look at Al Jazeera as mostly factual. Unfortunately, every media source seems to have its own bias slant. Its why discussions like these are important so individuals can hopefully make informed decisions
but don't take my word for it go to some of those aggregate cate new sites like Ground News, Gaza is featured prominently and has it's own section, but nothing on Sudan on page one.
We've seen the same "facts" brought up on Al-Jazeera yet AJ doesn't have the best record of being non-biased and factual, especially concerning Israel and the US.
FWIW it's not like I believe any news source 100% western or otherwise, thus the popularity of sites such as these. Furthermore Im just as skeptical of sources like Fox News
Of course, why while I appreciate hearing opposing opinions or even opinions that agree with, at some point, there needs to be corroborative evidence presented or we are just all spouting our opinions, ala Twitter or Discord. I had hoped Deny Ignorance aspired to be more, if one's opinion has merit one would think it would be easy to find pertinent source material and include the links or synopsis here. It's why I try and include links and quotes germane to the discussion.
Ergo I pretty much know your viewpoint, Im interested in where that viewpoint developed and the sources used as the foundation of that viewpoint.

I give way more credence to sources from the middle...

I am sorry but that's not true.
Gaza doesn't get coverage.
The Western MSM pushes the Israeli propaganda and the Zionist position.
On this topic they have zero credibility when they try to manufacture a picture that doesn't exist and a consensus that doesn't exist.
Israel is the occupier and it's committing war crimes, ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity. Many say it's committing genocide.
The world isn't having it and most countries have turned against Israel. Spain/Ireland
/Norway/ South Africa, and over 145 countries recognise Palestinian Statehood and many of them are directly accusing Israel of war crimes, ethnic cleansing, genocide.
