The New York Times on Friday terminated its relationship with a Palestinian freelancer and fixer in the Gaza Strip after a media watchdog noted his repeated antisemitism and calls for violence against Jews on social media.
Fixers are hired by news outlets in foreign countries to coordinate logistics or assist with other journalistic tasks, such as working as a translator or a guide.
A spokeswoman for the Times told The Algemeiner news site on Friday that, “The New York Times had worked with this freelance reporter only in recent weeks. We are no longer doing so.”
