Daniszewski says the “normalizing” of this issue is totally unacceptable. He threw the gauntlet down at the feet of international organizations such as the United Nations and UNESCO to take direct and drastic action to protect journalists in the field.
His claimed goal is to create a “culture of safety” for journalism. That’s an admirable sentiment, but is it a real possibility? Journalists have been imbedded with forward troops in every war in the past century. Some have been captured. Some have been killed. While there’s some blame to go around in these instances, it’s fair to say the responsibility is most directly on the ones who did the killing – and no one else.
It’s a difficult truth because so many journalists make their careers reporting from dangerous areas. We’ve all seen today’s more famous anchors reporting in cities under bombardment or from one hot zone or another around the world.
So, in the end, while it may not be the responsibility of these agencies or the employers to make danger safer for journalists to do their work, it does stand as an apparent positive PR opportunity. If they choose to embrace the cause.PR News
