The Impact of Gaza War Videos on News Organizations and Social Media
News organizations are increasingly relying on video evidence from various sources, including social media, to report on the war in Gaza. Journalists are tasked with sifting through a flood of videos to determine what is real and to piece together the truth. The use of open-source reporting methods, such as analyzing satellite images and mapping software, has become crucial in verifying information. However, the abundance of violent and fake images takes an emotional toll on journalists, leading news outlets to prioritize the mental well-being of their staff.
