The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

curious what American media you read/watch/listen that did this. All the media I consume generally indicated the truth was still buried in the fog of war.

ABC, for one
X (Twitter): ABC News on X: "BREAKING: At least 500 people have been killed in a strike that targeted Al Ahli Arab Hospital in the middle of Gaza, according to the Gaza Heal

BREAKING: At least 500 people have been killed in a strike that targeted Al Ahli Arab Hospital in the middle of Gaza, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

The hospital served as a shelter for thousands of residents who fled their homes in northern Gaza.

Complete with the picture of the mourner over the coffin.

Then there's NPR:
npr.org - Gaza aid israel hamas biden visit

Hundreds killed in explosion at a crowded Gaza hospital

Wounded Palestinians sit in al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City, central Gaza Strip, after arriving from Al-Ahli hospital following an explosion there, on Tuesday.

At least NPR said this
Palestinian health officials say hundreds of people have been killed in an explosion at a crowded Gaza hospital. The cause of the explosion has not yet been confirmed, with Palestinian authorities accusing Israel and Israel saying a Palestinian militant group was responsible.

...
Palestinian health officials said most of the victims of the explosion were women and children. Arabic news channels broadcast grim footage of the catastrophic aftermath, showing grieving parents holding their children.

Reuters also ran with it
reuters.com - Least victims israeli air strike hospital gaza health ministry

In deadly day for Gaza, hospital strike kills hundreds

They even managed to have video...of a not-destroyed hospital.
