The rules that have, at least to a degree, protected the safety and freedom of journalists are being violated around the world, and nowhere more so than in Gaza. “Gaza is unprecedented,” Jodie Ginsberg, the president of the Committee to Protect Journalists, says, in “the number of journalists killed in such a short space of time. Part of that is to do with the size of Gaza, the density. The fact that there is nowhere to go that’s safe.” She talks with David Remnick about the accusation that Israel is targeting Palestinian journalists, and about threats to press freedom and safety in countries including the United States, where Donald Trump has labelled reporters “enemies of the people.”
Plus, the writer and director Cord Jefferson talks with his longtime friend and staff writer for The New Yorker, Jelani Cobb, about his début feature film, “American Fiction,” which has been nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Picture. The film has won praise for portraying a broader spectrum of the Black experience than Hollywood normally offers.
