  They were still streaming live right after the building blew up... it doesn't take much equipment to do it nowadays... here for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-upyPouRrB8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-upyPouRrB8

    They don’t mean because of material damage, it is due to the clear signal sent that Israel is willing to use military action against the media. obviously this is going to reduce the coverage as not all journalists are willing to risk their lives to cover a story.

  You can report news from everywhere without a 14 story building ... Do they have offices in every single city in the world?

    They weren't the only media organization in the building, and I presume they do indeed have offices in cities where major news repeatedly breaks. There's an undercurrent in your comment of blaming AP for having a presence in Gaza, yet this was not an accidental strike. AP says that Israel gave them advance warning of the attack. https://apnews.com/article/media-israel-middle-east-business-israel-palestinian-conflict-fe452147166f55ba5a9d32e6ba8b53d7 https://apnews.com/article/media-israel-middle-east-business...
