Had great support from #CommunityFibre over the last few years. Until the beginning of Nov there’s a deal on their website for double speed. I now have a home broadband of 5Gbps 🥳 - They are also really easy to reach and communicate with by phone, unlike some other providers.

We had technical problems with some @sennheiserofficial.bsky.social #microphones now out of warranty. The support from the team at #Sennheiser in Germany was amazing and they have done everything they can to resolve the issue with a great understanding of how vital good #audio is to TV news.

On live television for the world to see, Israel is letting us all know that they don’t care if the world condemns this or not, they will murder every Palestinian for this land.

Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif captured the most harrowing #Gaza images before Israel killed him. His nephew, photographer Musab Al-Sharif, initially incorrectly reported as having died in the attack has vowed to continue his work

Deeply shocked by Israel’s deliberate killing of the Al Jazeera correspondent Anas al-Sharif, his colleague Mohammed Qreiqeh and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal and Moamen Aliwa. Israel has now killed at least 186 journalists in this war.

Huge #water supply outage in N London tonight but #thameswater #vulnerable customers support is a joke. #Disabled #PSR custs with no water can’t get through on the phone line, the WhatsApp is down & no replies on their Facebook chat. We are tempted to wake the 24hr press officer.

Anas Al-Sharif was one of the most remarkable reporters of his generation. For 673 days, he defied Israeli threats to kill him.

Al Jazeera now confirm their crew in Gaza City have all been assassinated:

RIP reporters Anas Al-Sharif & Mohammed Qareqea and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher & Mohammed Nofal
Anas Al-Sharif pictured with his two young children that he is holding. They are all smiling.

Some of the most harrowing images we have seen from #Gaza were taken by #anasalsharif He brought light to what was happening on the ground there and he will be remembered for showing the world the reality of what has been happening in #Palestine

In a new post on X @johnsimpsonnews.bsky.social has expressed his support for the local journalists covering the story in #Gaza “I’ve got the greatest respect for the many journalists in Gaza who have reported bravely and often at the cost of their own lives to show us what’s happening there…”

If you are a #journalist #photojournalist or work in another role in the media please sign this. International media must be allowed to report from #Gaza - We also respect the local media in Gaza who are targeted for shooting the footage & images that the world’s media are using daily.

However on your main point we agree that the world’s media also needs to be allowed into Gaza. We hope you will consider the various comments from other media about the wording of your post and hope you do consider the local journalists risking their life as honest and unbiased.

The world needs honest, unbiased eyewitness reporting to help people make up their minds about the major issues of our time. This has so far been impossible in Gaza. Journalists around the world should support calls for reporters to be allowed into Gaza now.

Because reporting, footage & photojournalism is done by people who live in Gaza this does not mean that it isn’t “honest, unbiased eyewitness reporting” it’s a terrible slur on the work that local journalists have been doing while being targeted & killed to suggest otherwise.
