This is the best summary I could come up with:
The resulting report, published in late December, was headlined “‘Screams Without Words’: How Hamas Weaponized Sexual Violence on Oct. 7.” It was a bombshell and galvanized the Israeli war effort at a time when even some of Israel’s allies were expressing concern over its large-scale killing of civilians in Gaza.
Schwartz said she then began a series of extensive conversations with Israeli officials from Zaka, a private ultra-Orthodox rescue organization that has been documented to have mishandled evidence and spread multiple false stories about the events of October 7, including debunked allegations of Hamas operatives beheading babies and cutting the fetus from a pregnant woman’s body.
The independent site October 7 Fact Check, Mondoweiss, and journalists Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada and Max Blumenthal of The Grayzone have flagged numerous inconsistencies and contradictions in the stories told in the Times report, including the account of Cohen, who had initially said “he chose not to look, but he could hear them laughing constantly.”
In early December, Israeli officials launched an intensive public campaign, accusing the international community and specifically feminist leaders of standing silent in the face of the widespread, systemic sexual violence of Hamas’s October 7 attack.
Maybe the U.N. isn’t addressing sexual assault because no [media outlet] will come out with a declaration about what happened there.’” If the Times story doesn’t publish soon, she said, “it may no longer be interesting.” Schwartz said the delay was explained to her internally as, “We don’t want to make people sad before Christmas.”
Times staffers who spoke to The Intercept on the condition of anonymity for fear of professional reprisal described the “Screams Without Words” article as the product of the same mistakes that led to the disastrous editor’s note and retraction on Rukmini Callimachi’s podcast “Caliphate” and print series on the Islamic State group.
The original article contains 6,617 words, the summary contains 304 words. Saved 95%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

I found this informative and convincing.
I remember the “mature adults” told me that I needed to learn journalism skills and critics reading when the NYT article full of holes came out and I said it looked super fake since there’s zero evidence and the witnesses were “anonymous”
They said that NYT is a premium newspaper and referenced Gettleman’s Pullitzer prize a lot. Thus you need to believe anything they say.
Then my posts from The Grayzone fully debunking it got removed cause MBFC gives them a bad rating.
Where you guys at. Admit I was right. I was down at - 9999 downvotes back then with an army of “mature adults” trying to gaslight me into supporting israel’s Genocide.
Seems the NYT wanted a propaganda piece more than actual news.
