We at the FPA have complained about Israel's censorship of media and we also protest the Palestinian Authority's recent decision to suspend Al Jazeera from broadcasting in the West Bank. We condemn the PA’s emulation of Israeli censorship, just as we condemned the Israeli government’s actions against Al Jazeera, Ha-Aretz and other critical media, and extend our support to Al-Jazeera for its coverage of the Authority’s repression of armed groups in the West Bank..

CPJ announces winners of 2024 International Press Freedom Awards
The Committee to Protect Journalists announced that it will honor four exceptional journalists with its 2024 International Press Freedom Awards.
This year’s awardees, who cover Gaza, Guatemala, Niger, and Russia, have withstood extraordinary challenges to continue reporting on their communities while experiencing war, prison, government crackdowns, and the rising criminalization of their work.
CPJ will posthumously honor Christophe Deloire, who served as director general of the press freedom organization Reporters Without Borders (RSF), with the 2024 Gwen Ifill Press Freedom Award, an award presented annually by CPJ’s board of directors in recognition of an individual’s sustained commitment to press freedom. Deloire led RSF for 12 years before his untimely death in June 2024.
The CPJ awards will be presented in New York City on November 21. John Oliver, host of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, will be master of ceremonies at the event, which will be chaired by Jessica E. Lessin, founder and CEO of The Information.
