A CNN report about an Israeli air strike destroying a tower block in Gaza is falsely claimed online to have reused footage from 2021. The Oct. 7 CNN report shows the collapse of the Palestine Tower, a large building in downtown Gaza City hosting media offices and residential apartments, after it was bombed by Israel the same day. Other news outlets covered the same incident, including Al Jazeera, which captured the moment live on-air. The 12-storey building was home to offices of the Associated Press and Al Jazeera and is a visibly different building to that of Palestine Tower. CNN did not reuse footage of the al-Jalaa attack in the TikTok report about the Palestine Tower.

☆ Fact Check: Video shows Israel striking Gaza tower in 2021, not 2023
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-11 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Footage of an Israeli airstrike in 2021 that collapsed Gaza’s Al-Shorouk tower block has been falsely captioned on social media as showing a 2023 response to an attack on its soil from the Palestinian militant group Hamas. Gaza’s health ministry said a further 770 people were killed in the retaliatory strikes. But the video is unrelated to the retaliatory strikes. The grille-windows of an adjacent building are visible in a photo hosted on Getty Images which shows an aerial view of Al-Shorouk tower’s rubble. The video shows an Israeli airstrike destroying Gaza’s Al-Shorouk tower in 2021.

☆ The digital media rollup dream is dead for the moment — now it's all about core brand strength

What's happening in the digital media space echoes trends from the biggest media companies, including Netflix , Disney and Warner Bros. The rollup dream's rise and fallFrom late 2018 to early 2022, the digital media industry had a shared goal. First, digital media companies needed more scale to compete with Facebook and Google for digital advertising dollars. Large legacy media companies such as Disney and Comcast 's NBCUniversal invested hundreds of millions in digital media in the early and mid-2010s. "The digital media rollup has proven successful only when assets are thoughtfully combined with an eye toward consumers," Goldberg said.
