Multimedia reporter Marina Watanbe has accused the US media in being “complicit” in the deaths of five Al Jazeera staff who the Israeli militaey killed in an intentional drone strike while they were in a media tent stationed outside of Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.
In a post on X on Monday, the former LA Times reporter said the publication had prevented her and 100 of her colleagues from covering Palestine for three months:
“Shortly after the Gaza genocide began, I signed an open letter demanding that Israel stop killing journalists. @latimes [LA Times] punished me and 100 of my colleagues and banned us from covering Palestine for 3 months. I will never forgive US media for its complicity in their deaths”.
US publications like the New York Times, CNN and others have been under fire for inaccurate reporting on Israel’s war on Gaza.
