Newshour - Gaza aid suspended again after 6 killed

There’s been another shooting near a US and Israeli-backed aid distribution centre in southern Gaza.

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation suspended aid distribution again, blaming threats from Hamas.

In March, NPR Justice Correspondent Carrie Johnson reported on problems with the way federal courts police sexual harassment and bullying. A culture of secrecy made reporting the story particularly difficult. With few protections, many who alleged mistreatment were afraid to speak out.

For our weekly Reporter's Notebook series, Johnson takes us inside her investigation – and speaks with Consider This host Scott Detrow about the challenge of using anonymous sources to bring accountability to the courts.
