	War correspondent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A war in Europe, such as the conflict in the former Yugoslavia receives a great deal of coverage, as does the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or anything involving the troops of the audience's country.
		One of the earliest war correspondents was Henry Crabb Robinson, who covered Napoleon's campaigns in Spain and Germany for The Times of London.
		Later in the Gulf War the military found that if exciting, but sanitized, footage could be provided to the media they would use it instead of more expensive and difficult to obtain pictures from the ground.

	Newseum War Stories: An Essay by Harry Evans
		He faced none of the frustrations and dilemmas of the modern war correspondent because he was taking part in the battle himself, as the commanding general of the invasion of Britain in the year 55 B.C. Julius Caesar is one of a very long line of soldiers who reported their own campaigns firsthand.
		Thucydides was a military officer and his "History of the Peloponnesian War" was informed by his experience in command of the Greek fleet at Thasos in 424 B.C. and his defeat by the Spartan general Brasidas.
		For the modern war correspondent, the imponderables are more numerous and the canvas broader than it was for battle participants like Caesar, who practiced war journalism before it was invented.

	War Correspondent (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		As one of the first female war correspondents, she is credited with bringing to light the plight of ordinary people caught up in wars they did not create.

		I'm also well aware from many years as a war reporter that there have been times, especially in this conflict, when dead and wounded insurgents have been booby-trapped, even supposedly including an incident that happened just a block away from the mosque in which one Marine was killed and five others wounded.
		But observing all of this as an experienced war reporter who always bore in mind the dark perils of this conflict, even knowing the possibilities of mitigating circumstances -- it appeared to me very plainly that something was not right.
		In war, as in life, there are plenty of opportunities to see the full spectrum of good and evil that people are capable of.

	Siege of Antwerp
		I came out to this war with a theory that one of the chief benefits of it was that it eliminated the personal equation - that individual life became less important, and that relationships between individuals became less important still.
		As far as the correspondents go, luck which after all, is an entirely individual matter, is the chief factor.
		For a girl the difficulties are multiplied, as all sides consider one a spy and when it comes to getting out with other journalists, the nice men do not want one because of the danger to oneself, and the others because it so increases the danger to them.

	Modern History Sourcebook: A War Correspondent in the Franco-Prussian War, 1870
		WHEN war was declared between France and Germany in the early summer of 1870, I was sent by a London paper to act as special correspondent with MacMahon's corps d'armee, and, leaving the town at twenty-four hours' notice, arrived at Strasburg with by no means too much time to spare.
		On arriving at Strasburg, I managed to be introduced, in an informal manner, to the gallant officer who commanded the army there assembled, and was not a little pleased when the marshal recognized me, as having met me in Algeria some years before.
		The former were filled with French prisoners and wounded soldiers; the latter with fresh German troops en route for the seat of war, doctors and sisters of charity on their way to tend the sick of the German army, and every sort of war stores and supplies it is possible to imagine.

		But this is what Robert Fisk did when he was Middle East correspondent for that most prestigious of British newspapers — the London Times —; after it was blighted by the takeover of Rupert Murdoch.
		He is also distinguished from his fellow journalists by his sensitivity to the debasing of language in which the words “occupied territory” can become “disputed territory” and the misuse of the words like freedom, liberty, democracy and, of course, that ever present catchall — terrorism.
		He witnesses, in sometimes quite gory detail, the horror of war as it affects ordinary human beings — those innocent victims for which the US invented the term collateral damage.
