Notice to the military forces of the world: Reuters says you had better make absolutely sure there are no journalists in the war zone before firing your weapons. And if you have any doubt, hold your fire.

Failure to comply will result in press releases and deeply disturbed CEOs. You have been warned.

Israel clears troops who killed Reuters cameraman.

Reuters said on Wednesday it was deeply disturbed by a conclusion that severely curtails the freedom of the media to cover the conflict by effectively giving soldiers a free hand to kill without being sure they were not firing on journalists.

And that goes for you too, Russia. Or maybe not.
