An Israeli strike on a press tent outside a Gaza hospital Sunday killed five Al Jazeera journalists, including prominent reporter Anas al-Sharif. The Committee to Protect Journalists had previously warned about the danger to al-Sharif's life. From Jordan, Sara Qudah, the Middle East and North Africa regional director for the CPJ, tells The World's Host Marco Werman the deaths are part of a pattern of press intimidation.
