Palestinian journalists in the West Bank face extreme physical danger, psychological trauma, and systemic targeting under Israeli occupation, yet continue to report with resilience, amplifying the voices of their people despite global indifference and media bias.

What does it mean for readers when their voices are deliberately cut off? This content analysis of The Telegraph, a UK-based conservative newspaper known for its pro-establishment stance and alignment with right-leaning narratives, shows it systematically disabled Instagram comments on Israel-Gaza posts, blocking dissent and shaping a one-sided, pro-Israel narrative.

It labelled Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif, killed by the occupation, a “terrorist”; denies famine in Gaza; trains its journalists in Israel to promote the Zionist narrative; published forged documents leaked from Netanyahu’s office; and belongs to a media group whose charter affirms “support for Israel’s right to exist”.
This is Bild, Germany’s newspaper of incitement against Palestinians, cited by Israel’s president.

With a 200-year history, Urdu newspapers in India are now facing a silent death—trapped in a cycle of decline where circulation has fallen by nearly 25%, advertising is absent, and government support is scarce. What vanishes is more than print: it is the erosion of a cultural and political lifeline that once bound Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs in common debates and carried the voices of the marginalised into India’s public sphere.

Newsrooms, long lauded as bastions of information, are quietly grappling with a mental health crisis, underscoring an urgent need for systemic support, emotional safety, and sustainable practices to protect those telling the world’s stories.

In Kashmir, mounting censorship, political pressure, and shrinking job prospects are forcing a generation of aspiring journalists to abandon the profession, many before they even get the chance to begin, leaving behind a media landscape stripped of dissent, debate, and independent voices.

The collapse of the media industry in Sudan has subjected journalists to physical threats, legal and professional challenges, with no functioning legal system to investigate crimes committed against the press.

Nepali journalists are under attack on two fronts: facing violence from protesters in the streets while also being targeted by government crackdowns, restrictive laws, and political interference that threaten press freedom.

In Spain, a well-intentioned media practice of omitting suspects’ ethnic backgrounds in crime reporting is now backfiring, fuelling misinformation, empowering far-right narratives, and eroding public trust in journalism.

Amid Israel’s war on Gaza, Zina Q. uncovers how Google Maps and satellite imagery are being manipulated; homes relabelled as “haunted,” map updates delayed, and evidence of destruction obscured, revealing digital cartography itself as a weapon of war. By exposing these distortions and linking them to conflicts from Sudan to Ukraine, she demonstrates how control over maps and AI surveillance influences not only what the world sees, but also what it remembers.

Does the Palestinian journalist in Gaza have the freedom to simply “step away”? How do they navigate the balance between their professional responsibilities and their family life? And to what extent does the duty to report justify the personal cost of being separated from one’s loved ones? Journalist Jenin Al-Wadiya sheds light on the deeply human details that rarely make it to the screen.

The Continent is a new way of empowering people through quality journalism, blending the authority of newspapers with the reach of 21st-century distribution. Readers love it. That’s why we built it. It’s a model other newsrooms can learn from and one that comes with its own set of challenges.

The field is where journalism and the social sciences meet at their most dynamic edge. As the world grows more complex, journalists increasingly take on the role of sociologists, without abandoning their core mission to question power and expose uncomfortable truths. By drawing on the methods and insights of social science, journalism deepens its coverage, grounds stories in real-world contexts, and resists the temptation of surface-level narratives.

Following the assassination of journalist Anas Al-Sharif, Palestinian journalists have been framed in Israeli media as legitimate military targets—part of a deliberate strategy to silence those who bear witness to the truth. This article explores how Hebrew-language media outlets have engaged in rhetoric that incites and legitimises the killing of journalists in Gaza.

Bangladesh’s interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, has launched ambitious media reforms to undo the legacy of Sheikh Hasina’s 15-year rule, which was marked by censorship, media monopolies, and the notorious Digital Security Act. However, despite promises of greater freedom, journalists remain wary, as self-censorship, restrictive laws, and public scepticism continue to cast doubt on genuine change.

How many journalists have to be killed before we name the killer? What does press freedom mean if it excludes Palestinians? In its latest strike, Israel killed an entire Al Jazeera news crew in Gaza—part of a systematic campaign to silence the last witnesses to its crimes. Canadian Journalists for Justice in Palestine (CJJP) condemns this massacre and calls on the Canadian government to end its complicity, uphold international law, and demand full accountability. This is not collateral damage. This is the targeted erasure of truth.

On this page, the editorial team of the Al Jazeera Journalism Review will collect news published by media institutions about the current war on Gaza that involves disinformation, bias, or professional journalistic standards and its code of ethics.

For over a year and a half, Anas Jamal al-Sharif refused to leave northern Gaza, documenting the destruction and loss that others tried to hide. Tonight, Israel silenced his voice, but his final words, written on April 6, will echo far beyond his death.

Why demand entry for foreign reporters when Palestinian journalists are already risking—and losing—their lives to tell the truth? Real solidarity means saving journalists' lives, amplifying their voices, and naming the genocide they expose daily.

How did The Washington Post's coverage differ between Israel’s bombing of Gaza hospitals and Iran’s strike on an Israeli hospital? Why does the paper attempt to frame Palestinian victims within a “complex operational context”? And when does language become a tool of bias toward the Israeli narrative?

In the accelerating context of genocide, is the “pace” of death in Gaza outstripping journalists’ ability to capture human stories? How can they be expected to take their time crafting narratives amid hunger, displacement, and death? And to what extent can postwar documentation hold journalistic value in preserving collective memory and pursuing accountability for the perpetrators?
