Gaza War#Media

Even when relief workers and other foreign citizens were allowed to cross the border, journalists were refused entry into Gaza by Israel while at the same Israeli commentators offered to guide the journalists around areas of Israel that had been hit by rockets. The [[Foreign Press Association of Israel]] released a statement saying, “The unprecedented denial of access to Gaza for the world’s media amounts to a severe violation of press freedom and puts the state of Israel in the company of a handful of regimes around the world which regularly keep journalists from doing their jobs.” <ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/07/world/middleeast/07media.html |date=[[2009-01-06]] |title=Israel Puts Media Clamp on Gaza |first=Ethan |last=Bronner |publisher=[[New York Times]]}}</ref>
