The genocidal war has systematically devastated the media sector in the Gaza Strip. With the occupation destroying over 150 media organizations, printing presses have completely shut down, forcing all newspapers to shift entirely to digital coverage.

Journalists covering Nigerian conflicts increasingly use remote reporting methods that rely on local fixers and open-source data, forcing a dependence on digital tools that limits direct physical context. Reporters share these difficult realities, exposing how safety risks change the way conflict is documented and asking how the media can keep news accurate when journalists cannot reach the ground.

The occupation killed journalists Mohamed al-Khalidi and Marwa Muslim as part of a systematic pattern of targeting the press, but throughout their careers they also faced neglect, marginalisation, and a lack of recognition. Colleague Maysoun Kahil tells their story, and asks why Palestinian journalists are so often honoured only after death, rather than supported in life.

Independent journalists in Gaza face a dangerous double battle. Working without institutional protection or financial safety nets, they risk their lives to report the reality of war, overcoming severe resource shortages and systemic neglect to ensure the world hears the truth.

North American mainstream journalists covering US and Israel-led algorithmic warfare frequently use anthropomorphic language that humanises technologies like machine learning, forcing a reliance on tech-elite jargon that sanitises the immense human cost and removes accountability from the state actors and weapon developers.

Journalism in Latin America is facing a crisis of hostility. In the age of political polarization, governments from both the left and the right are not merely managing states; they are actively harassing critical voices, imposing institutional censorship, and enforcing official narratives that attack independent media to silence disagreement and fake democracy across the region.
