> "the drop that filled the glass" Honestly, this feels like an extremely optimistic take. Journalists are regularly killed around the world, yes. But how many people even heard about it when Daphne Galizia was murdered? It's hard for a string of atrocities to add up when most of them don't even register with people. The nastier take here is that this is some combination of a regional spat (Turkey suddenly has a stick to hit Saudi Arabia with) and nationalistic/journalistic self interest (when Russian and Maltese journalists are killed, they're honored, but when journalists with US papers are killed, it's time to do something). I'd really like to think this is the culmination of building outrage, but every time I see somebody post about the death of a journalist who was "a US resident working with a US newspaper!" I become a little more convinced that it's mostly a nationalistic sentiment that these things don't happen to us.
