A total of 750 international journalists have signed an open letter criticising the media coverage of the Zionist-American aggression against Gaza and the killing of journalists while covering Gaza-related crimes.

Journalists from Reuters, Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe, and the Washington Post criticised newsrooms for inhumane rhetoric justifying the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

Over 750 American journalists signed an open letter condemning the killing of journalists in Gaza and criticizing Western media coverage of the war, as reported by The Washington Post.

The newspaper pointed out that signing the letter was, for some journalists, a bold and even dangerous step, adding that journalists in media organisations have already been expelled and fired because they adopted public political positions that might expose them to accusations of bias.

The letter’s authors said it was “a call to recommit to justice and not abandon it.”
