WASHINGTON (AP) — The Newseum is re-evaluating plans to include two people who worked for a network connected to Hamas on its Journalists Memorial honoring journalists who died last year while covering the news.
Several groups, including the Anti-Defamation League, B’nai B’rith International and the American Jewish Committee, have objected to the inclusion of two people who worked for Al-Aqsa Television in the Gaza Strip because it is linked to the Palestinian Islamist group. The U.S., European Union and Israel have labeled Hamas a terror group.
