Clarissa Ward was lauded after she bravely reported from across the Israel-Gaza border as rockets shot overhead, before a manipulated video claimed that she staged the moment for cameras. When reporting from near the Israel-Gaza border, the correspondent was forced to duck for cover earlier this week. After hearing rockets overhead, Ward and several members of her team were seen running to the side of a road seconds. 'Get down! One of her staff said, 'close, close, close.' 'You're fine, you're fine... that's the Iron Dome.' Ward's story was parodied by The Quartering, which claims to be a 'news and content company,' but the company admitted to using fake audio dubbed over Ward's original video. Despite the recording clearly being manipulated, with Snopes the first to debunk it, a number of viewers seemed to agree that it was true. According to a CNN spokeswoman, 'the recording in the video shared and posted on X is fake, inaccurate, irresponsibly distorts the truth of the moment that was broadcast live on CNN,' which people should watch in full for themselves on a trusted website.'

CNN and Richard Engel from NBC were seen ducking for cover during their live broadcasts in the midst of a 'barrage' of rocket fires. The correspondents were in Israel near the Gaza strip focusing on the latest Israeli assaults since Hamas' attack over the weekend.

In a talk in Venice that earned her a standing ovation from the watching crowd, she described Ava DuVernay, who also works for social justice, as a "path breaker, change maker, and historical film maker." Mrs Clinton wrote, "Her visionary studies into Black histories and experiences are more relevant today than ever." DuVernay, who received the Inspiration DVF award, had 'opened doors' not only for her but also for many others, she said.
