The Associated Press (AP) denied any knowledge that Jala Tower, the building housing its offices in Gaza, was also shared by Hamas terrorists, as claimed by the Israeli military and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the office block was bombed on Saturday. AP President and CEO Gary Pruitt denied that the news organization knew Hamas was in the building. In a statement, he said: We are shocked and horrified that the Israeli military would target and destroy the building housing AP’s bureau and other news organizations in Gaza.

Of course they deny it, but we all know they did know. And, how is it the Israelis didn't know (or maybe they did) that there were news organizations in the area where the bombing took place? Riddle me that, batman. That building is not sovereign territory, so what do they expect the SD to do? Leftists always have something to say when danger they foment affects them. They should have heeded the warning like the non-Hamas sympathizing people did. Hamas uses them alright, but they're willing useful idiots.

“I am shocked, Shocked! - that terrorism is going on in this building.”

Either they knew and are lying - or they didn't know and are bad journalists.

And who does the left and their journalistic pals consider the good guys? Hint: it’s not the Israelis. They were bunking with their homies.

Well, it might be true...they are exceptionally stupid 'reporters', often cannot seem to discover the simplest stories about conservatives and good things.
But, so what? You guys SHOULD have known, and if you didn't that's all on you. Tough rocks.
Maybe choose better next time?

So when it is confirmed that Hamas WAS in the building we can expect a widely broadcast apology for being so uninformed right?!

I guess we can't rely on AP for intelligence, huh?

AP asked Hamas if they were in the building and were told no. That was good enough for AP.

And you’re a news organization.

So I guess they never checked the building directory? It’s not like it was a secret.
The truth is the AP is just boldly lying. Not only did they know Hamas was in the building, the AP officed in the building to provide protection for Hamas and to get access to Hamas.

Lying collaborators or duped idiots. Either way AP loses whatever credibility it had.

How would people who now make up stuff instead of reporting it know anything at all?

It is a twofer. Destroy one building and get rid of the offices of the AP and Hamas.

Does anybody really freakin care about what the AP thought. Their building is gone and people don't really give a damn about what they think. Got it...

Do you really expect "investigative journalists" to know what's happening in their own building? That's way beyond the scope of their noble profession.
