There was a heartbreak for Sky News reporter after a diehard English football fan used the live broadcast in tonight’s Euro final to express his support for Palestinians. Left shocked by the sudden development, a visibly upset Sky Mews reporter was heard saying ‘we don’t need this tonight.’ Rifat Jawaid says that while some of these English fans have rightly used the popularity of the sport to support the Palestinian cause, the western countries’ silence over Gaza has been criminal. Note: We’ve used a reasonable portion of videos from the broadcasts of British TV channels Sky News and ITV for the purpose of commentary and critiquing. The British law on the fair use states, “Fair dealing for criticism, review or quotation is allowed for any type of copyright work. Fair dealing with a work for the purpose of reporting current events is allowed for any type of copyright work other than a photograph. In each of these cases, a sufficient acknowledgement will be required.” Rifat Jawaid is a UK-based journalist.
