Join us in thanking CBC’s Chris Brown for providing sobering coverage of Israel’s killing of journalists.
This is, to date, one of the best articles in Canada about this grim issue. It is critically important for Canadians to know the facts about Israel’s targeting of journalists in Gaza and elsewhere.
- The article provides humanizing details about journalists in Gaza and their families.
- International journalist groups are cited, and leading members are quoted at length about Israel’s attacks on journalists.
- Chris Brown quotes Israeli military officials but makes clear that they did not provide “details or evidence” to back their claims. This is a critically important qualifier, and Brown is right to include it.
- The article gives numerous examples of Israel targeting journalists. It is important for the CBC to not hold back on exposing these crimes.
