She said the news organization should clearly refer to the attackers behind the "horrific, sadistic violence" as terrorists. "They are the very best at what they do and the quality and accuracy of their journalism stands among the best in the world." Covered with the Israeli flag, the body of Ben Fishman is buried at Pardes Haim cemetery in Kfar Saba, near Tel Aviv, Israel, Sunday, Oct. 15, 2023.
