the southern white crap that talks back |

Saturday, April 12, 2003 This is the weblog of Stuart Hughes, BBC producer who's been in Iraq. He was with BBC cameraman Kaveh Golestan when the latter was killed by a landmine, and the injury he himself sustained was enough to require the amputation of one foot. It makes for horrific yet riveting reading. (And viewing, too; the blog is quite profusely illustrated with photos.) Interesting insights from the war zone include this:
CNN journalist Kevin Sites has also literally been in the wars, as this post at his blog demonstrates. No landmines or body parts being surgically removed, but in some ways a more worrying experience. Curious that Hughes hasn't had the official oh-no-you-don't order that Sites was given by CNN. Maybe the BBC are less paranoid about their staff expressing their personal views on their personal sites than CNN. |
