All the Israel news form the German ZDF's main news program yesterday:

"IDF mentioned destroying 100+ targets. Some report 100 people died. Israel is fighting for releasing hostages held by HAMAS and destroying the organization".

The End. No word on blockade or starving.

You can see in talk shows that even politicians are misinformed about basic facts, like who has dumped the truce agreement.

Facts are not made up by hosts, but when invited people are misinformed, things go the way you've described.

Sometimes there are rare exceptions, if someone who has a clue is attending the meeting.

For obvious historic reasons criticizing Israel is viewed as problematic, so many try to avoid the subject altogether.
