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.
