Confidential to cameramen: if you are close enough to get the picture of the launch, you’re in the impact area.

He was probably trying to get pics to “show the world” how Israel treats Hamas even while Carter was visiting. More propaganda from the Middle-East that the MSM expects everyone to believe hook, line and sinker.

I guess it slows you down when you have the firing control in one hand and a camera in the other.

****The Reuters cameraman, Fadal Shana, 23, apparently was killed along with two bystanders in an airstrike in the same area, according to his colleagues and medics.

Cameramen who rushed to the scene said they saw the Reuters jeep on fire, and Shana's body lying next to the jeep, alongside other casualties. They said Shana's jeep was marked as “press” and that the cameraman was wearing an identifying flak jacket.****

MSM is already circling the wagons.

Sure they did.

This guy was killed and robbed by Palestinians who are now fabricating more propaganda.

“staging a pic?”

My first thought was I wondered if he had a jug of fake blood and a sack of children’s toys. Do you think these guys would continue to risk their lives if they appreciated how little credibility they have left?

He was pumping out Hamas propaganda pics of them firing rockets at Israel or walking around with rifles in hand chanting,”where's my 72 virgins?”.

MSNBC reported there was 4 cameramen who saw him dead. Are they going to post his blood and guts with the pics they took of him?
