BBC Radio 4 - The Media Show, How CNN got into Gaza

Clarissa Ward on reporting from Gaza despite a ban on journalists entering.

Clarissa Ward, CNN Chief International Correspondent, talks about entering Gaza despite a ban on reporters entering the territory.

It's currently almost impossible for international journalists to enter Gaza. For those who can, it's a deadly conflict to cover. We talk to news organisations working on the ground since before the current war began, alongside those monitoring the situation from abroad, and hear about legal action being taken by the Foreign Press Association in Israel to get access.  

Guests: Clarissa Ward, Chief International Correspondent, CNN; Mohamed Moawad, Managing Editor, Al Jazeera; Josef Federman, News Director, Associated Press and board member of the Foreign Press Association; Jeremy Bowen, International Editor, BBC News. 

Presenter: Katie Razzall

Producer: Simon Richardson
