Israel's brazen assassination of Shireen Abu Akleh has shaken the Palestinian world. For 25 years she was on television in every Palestinian home reporting for Al Jazeera News Service from the hot spots of the Israeli occupation. Seemingly everyone knew Shireen; she was a trusted voice reporting the news day in and day out. Responding to her death, the popular Al Jazeera news program, The Stream, featured a forum on Shireen and her work. It reflected the love and admiration of Shireen’s friends and colleagues. the most extensive US coverage of Shireen’s assassination was by Amy Goodman on Democracy Now: she invited Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi to set in context our loss of Shireen.
