The flipside to embedded journalism.

Being close to the frontline doesn't matter.Its whether you have the balls to ask the right questions,and how your target reacts that does.

Very interesting article. It is to bad he knew the answer before he asked the question. The media is there because T.V. stations need ratings to stay alive and without these ratings the T.V. stations would not last and the reporters would not have jobs. I myself feel that conflicts would be better served with much less media attention like some of the other conflicts in the world that they care nothing about.
