Reporting the Israel Gaza war
Perspectives from journalists on the ground, plus we explore the information war raging on social media.
Exploring how the media is covering the conflict, we look at the battle for influence online and some of the misinformation that has been circulating, plus we talk to the BBC’s director of editorial policy about why BBC journalists won't use the word 'terrorists' to describe the perpetrators of the atrocities.
