Personal Quotes
"I believe that front-line journalism is important, you know without these photos and videos and first-hand experience, we can't really tell the world how bad it might be."
-James Foley
Student Evaluation (Harry)
I believe that war-reporting is worth the risk, without it, the public have no idea what happens in these other countries. Without our knowledge, the soldiers would probably have much worse conditions. This is because we would probably not donate anything to the military due to our ignorance of foreign conflicts.
Student Evaluation (James)
I believe that war corresponding is not worth the risk. I believe this because many war correspondents lose their life or get permanent injures. James Foley lost his life in the pursuit of gaining information. I would never trade my life for information.
