He is injured but not dead

He’s a British man, but he was working for the Russian state-controlled media organization Russia Today. So, I don’t think you can really call him a “journalist” anymore.

He is still literally a journalist whether you like it or not. FOX News says their content is entertainment, but I wouldn’t bring that point up if one of their reporters was targeted in their line of work.

No, he’s not a journalist. He’s a propagandist working for the Russian government.

A propagandist can be a journalist, a teacher, a doctor etc. You don’t bomb unarmed people you disgusting peace of trash

I think I’ve missed the part where he said it’s okay to bomb unarmed people, can you point it out?

journalists are protected under international humanitarian law in war zones by saying he is not a journalist he is alluding that that person deserve to die for being a propagandist
