520 | _aAs of mid-March of 2006, 86 media workers had been killed in the Iraq war and 38 kidnapped, according to Reporters Without Borders. In this work, Foerstel (board member of the Freedom to Read Foundation) introduces the reader to the growing dangers faced by war correspondents, frequently employing the words of the correspondents themselves. He includes the stories of Philip Caputo, Jerry Levin, Terry Anderson, Daniel Pearl, and Scott Taylor, journalists who were abducted, tortured, and, in one case, murdered as they attempted to do their jobs. He also presents a debate on the reasons that journalists have come to be targeted by all sides of current conflicts in the Middle East and provides advice to journalists, editors, and press organizations on how to minimize the dangers of modern war reporting.
