Robert Fisk & War Correspondents
Robert Fisk: The heroic myth and the uncomfortable truth of war reportingThis is an interesting viewpoint from a reporter who has covered many wars during his prolific career. His basic thesis is that covering wars is not about the war itself or the war victims: it has become about the reporters who cover the war. Fisk is voicing his opinion during a 3-week span where a number of journalist have died covering the Syrian uprising. What are your thoughts on this article? Article's subtitle: "Like other correspondents, Robert Fisk has risked his life to 'witness history". But after almost four decades, he feels ambivalent towards his profession."
