theolodisLebanon: Missile lands next to presenter during live report
…Russian state broadcaster RT…
Better luck next time.
What you mean?
I hope the missile lands on the Russian if another opportunity presents itself.
Avid AmoebaWhenever you see a rocket landing next to a civilian and you feel regret that it missed, that’s a sign it’s time for some self-reflection. 😄
That civilian works for and perpetuates an organization complicit in so many outright lies. They are part of the problem.
I understand that but the Israelis say the same thing as they’re killing Lebanese, Palestinian, etc. journalists in the region.
Tbh, after observing everything that’s happened since the start of the war in Ukraine, then Gaza, now Iran, I’ve come around to the conclusion that all dehumanization is counterproductive. It leads to too many errors in judgement and excess death even on “our” side as we preclude ourselves from taking off-ramps.
GhostalmediaHoly fuck
Never understood the desire to send live reporters into hostile territory. What does reporting live accomplish other than random deaths? Send a robot if you need footage.
chemical_cutthroatThree different reasons. One, gathering facts and being able to present them to the world as they happen so the people that aren’t there can understand. The second is to show the horrors or war so the people that aren’t there can understand. The third is to twist the narrative so that the people that aren’t there can feel whatever way the propagandist chooses.
Consider how our opinions would have been shaped if there was no reporting from inside Gaza and all the info we got was from IDF or IDF-approved reporting from Israel. The purpose of sending live reporters in hostile territory is to avoid that outcome.
ugjkaHe’d be dead if the missile hadn’t hit exactly in the previous hole made by another missile on that bridge he was standing on
These camera man and the reporter lived, but I wouldn’t be surprised to hear about life long injuries. Shrapnel, concussive forces. Not something I’d want to be around.
Missile was only rendered with 1 wing
