Palestinian news outlet mocked after claiming ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ doctor coming to Gaza ‘to offer medical help’


A news outlet linked to Gaza’s rulers wound up with egg on its face Friday after using a photo of an American actress from the television series “Grey’s Anatomy” in a post about a female doctor coming to the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian Information Center, a news website and advocacy organization affiliated with Hamas, published a Facebook post about a French doctor coming to treat Gazans wounded in clashes with Israeli forces, attaching a photo of the American actress Katherine Heigl. She played Dr. Izzie Stevens on the ABC television medical drama from 2005 to 2010.
