HonestReporting’s brand new international headquarters was officially opened on August 26 in the heart of downtown Jerusalem.
HR staff were joined by many friends, including Laura and Peter D. Weinstein along with their children and grandchildren, to celebrate the inauguration of the office suite that bears their name in honor of their incredibly generous contribution to its realization.
Aside from providing HonestReporting’s editorial team with the facilities to monitor the media and produce content on the ground in Israel, the new offices also include state-of-the-art facilities for video production, the results of which can already be seen on HR’s YouTube channel.
Among the guests at the reception was Jerusalem city councilor and candidate for Deputy Mayor in the upcoming municipal elections, Fleur Hassan-Nahoum, who reiterated the importance of HonestReporting’s work for Israel and the cause of fair coverage in the media.
A short video review of HR’s work and achievements over the years was projected on to the building for our guests to take pride in the HR story so far. You can watch the video clip below.
