Jewish Journalist Gerald Fischman Among 5 News Staff Murdered In Shooting

A Jewish journalist was one of five people killed in an attack at the office of a newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland, police have confirmed.

Among the dead was editorial writer Gerald Fischman, 61, whom the Capital Gazette described as the paper’s “conscience and voice”.

He was an “old-fashioned journalist,” a former editor of the paper said.

Steve Gunn remembered Fischman as “the master of AP style” who “made sure everything was just right.”
