The LA Times has banned staffers who signed an open letter criticizing Israel from covering the Gaza conflict for at least three months. This move is aimed at maintaining journalistic integrity. The ban comes after reporters condemned Israel's killing of journalists, leading to a suspension of those involved. The decision has sparked debate about objectivity and fairness in reporting on conflicts involving Israel. Additionally, an outgoing senior editor at Human Rights Watch has criticized the organization for anti-Israel bias, which he claims has compromised professionalism, accuracy, and fairness.

LA Times is not letting reporters who signed a letter protesting Israel killing journalists cover the conflict for three months. Would they have done the same thing if it was Iran or Russia or North Korea doing the same exact atrocities? No way. Where's the so-called objectivity?
