what's so inspiring about Malak A Tantesh winning those awards tho? like don't get me wrong, she's doing some amazing work but isn't that just kinda expected from journalists who care about telling important stories? shouldn't we be celebrating all the journalists out there doing this kind of work? 
it's a testament to the power of journalism in humanizing the struggles of others and holding those in power accountable 
! She's been reporting from Gaza for ages now, and it's amazing how she still manages to bring attention to the suffering of those people living there 
. I mean, her own story is so inspiring - going back to Beit Lahia after all these years, it must've been emotional for her and her family 
. And can we talk about how brave she is as a journalist? I mean, risking her life just to tell the truth is not easy 
.
! They're always pushing the boundaries of journalism, trying to show us the human side of global conflicts. And it's working! Tantesh's work is giving a voice to those who need it most, and that's something we should all be supporting 
. And I have to say, these British Journalism Awards should be recognized by all of us, not just in the UK 
. Good job, Tantesh! You deserve it 
read about her incredible story here: 
I'm seriously getting emotional over here! Malak A Tantesh is literally my hero 
it's heartbreaking, right? And yet, Tantesh does this over and over again, not just for the sake of her own story, but because she knows that these stories need to be told 
I mean, Colvin was an icon, and Tantesh is basically carrying on her legacy in the best possible way 
it's not easy being a journalist, especially when you're reporting from places like Gaza where the stakes are so high 
still can't believe how messed up life is for people livin in gaza, they deserve so much better 
. And The Guardian's wins are just as impressive - they've always been known for their in-depth coverage of global issues, but this takes the cake 
. It's not surprising to see Tantesh taking home those awards, though - she's been doing some amazing work for far too long 
. The fact that she won two awards is awesome 
.
. Journalism is all about teamwork and supporting each other, so kudos to them too 
, I'm inspired by Tantesh's determination and courage 
.
!
I mean, can you imagine having to report live from Gaza and still manage to tell such powerful stories? 
, but still congrats to her!
