12 Journalists, Mostly Palestinians in Gaza, Killed in "Deadliest Time for Journalists"

[Uncle Joe]

At least 12 journalists, mostly Palestinians, have been killed over the past 10 days of conflict in and around the Gaza Strip. Sherif Mansour of the Committee to Protect Journalists says it is one of the highest death tolls for journalists covering the conflict since 1992 and calls today it the "deadliest time for journalists in Gaza." He joins Democracy Now! to discuss the role of journalism in combating misinformation during times of violence and the threat of widespread censorship by Israel and other state actors.

1. There's only one reason to kill opposition Journalists.

2. Yes, and not necessarily reporters with opposite to ? views...just doing jobs...bearing witness.

3. There are journalists and then there are "journalists"

Some "journalists" were imbedded with the terrorists who attacked innocent civilians in Isreal. They were there to document the attack for propaganda. These people were filming while Hamas, kidnapped women, children, and disabled Holocaust survivors while shouting god is great.

I wonder how many of those reporters were part of that.

The ones that were in and just doing their job, their deaths are tragic. But if Hamas didn't commit a terrorist attack that resulted in the killing of more Jews, in any day since the holocaust they would still be alive.
