In this special edition of the PR Podcast we examine the role of reporters in war zones. When we pickup the paper, or turn on the TV or see a video on social media, whether its bombs falling, firefights in the street, or a humanitarian criss, we have to remember we only see and understand the tragedy because of the brave men and women of the press who are there doing their jobs to bring us the truth of what’s happening. Stephanie Gaskell is a journalist with 25 years of experience covering war and veterans, politics and policy. She has worked for the Associated Press, The New York Post and The New York Daily News, where she reported from Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantanamo, Haiti, Brussels and the World Trade Center site after 9/11.
