Mostly because they're not there? Israel doesn't allow outside journalists into Gaza[1]:
In the letter, the 55 journalists write that "foreign reporters are still being denied access to the territory, outside of the rare and escorted trips with the Israeli military".
The escorted trips are highly controlled and often only to show tunnels that the military says are used by Hamas or weapons stores.
