YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWashington, DC’s distinguished National Press Club, in partnership with Zeteo, hosted the first screening of our exclusive and acclaimed investigative documentary 'Who Killed Shireen?'
Following the screening, the National Press Club — represented by Director of the Press Freedom Center Bill McCarren — hosted a panel discussion featuring Zeteo founder and CEO Mehdi Hasan, Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist and ‘Who Killed Shireen?’ executive producer Dion Nissenbaum, senior US correspondent at The National Jihan Abdalla, and Al Jazeera’s Washington, DC, bureau chief, Abderrahim Foukara.
In this powerful discussion, Dion addressed the media’s lacking coverage of Israeli war crimes in Gaza and the broader lack of accountability for the killing of Palestinian journalists in Gaza and the West Bank.
The investigative documentary ‘Who Killed Shireen?’ made international headlines when it was released in May, and was featured everywhere from CNN and the New York Times to NPR, Al Jazeera, The Guardian, and yes, even the Times of Israel.
The film reveals the identity of the Israeli soldier who killed Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, and the Biden administration's deliberate cover-up of her execution-style killing.
Zeteo funded, supported, and published the documentary ‘Who Killed Shireen?” In this discussion, Mehdi confirms that Zeteo exists “to platform films and voices that aren't being heard and seen elsewhere.”
