Media outlets ready to pay for graphic photos from Jerusalem terror attack site

A terror attack took place in Jerusalem on 8 January, following a scenario reminiscent of previous incidents in European countries where a heavy vehicle ploughed into a crowd of people.

At least four people were killed by the terrorist in Israel today. Dozens more were injured with varying degrees of severity.

For many, this has been a tragedy. The exception is perhaps journalists from certain media outlets who are eager to profit from graphic photographs taken at the scene of the terror attack.

Journalists from the controversial Russian publication Life.news, for instance, are sending invitations via social media to people currently in Israel, asking them to go to the site of the tragedy and take photos and videos. The graphic footage is paid for.
