From The Poynter Report with senior media writer Tom Jones:
Covering the war between Israel and Hamas has been especially difficult for news organizations.
While it hasn’t all been perfect, the usual reliable news sources — the major networks, PBS, CNN, The New York Times, The Washington Post, the BBC, NPR, The Associated Press and Reuters — continue to be reliable. Although, not perfect. There have been moments of uncertainty, which has led to confusion — such as the hospital bombing in Gaza on Tuesday. In a rush to judgment, initial reports suggested it was an Israeli attack. But then both sides blamed the other, and there are still stories being published trying to get to the bottom of who was responsible.
