TL;DR Summary

CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour apologized for referring to the terror attack that killed three dual Israeli-UK nationals as a "shootout" instead of a shooting. The comment drew criticism from an NGO that monitors media bias against Israel, which launched a Twitter campaign calling for an apology. Amanpour issued a public and private apology to the Dee family, but Rabbi Leo Dee, the husband of Lucy and father of Maia and Rena, said he does not accept it and accused CNN of systematic bias in its coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
