Dateline Iraq

[video:youtube:NhHjwOU_mOA] Three journalists speak about working in Iraq for Dateline Iraq, a production by the Committee to Protect journalists. TIME Magazine's Bobby Ghosh, New York Times reporter James Glanz and freelancer Jehad Nga all feature and compare notes about how things were back in 2003 and how things are in 2008,
Obtaining reliable information is so difficult inside Iraq, Ghosh explains, that “you only get a sort of kaleidoscope; you get little bits and shards of information.” Nga describes the difference between reporting in Iraq in 2003 and in 2008 as “night and day.” link
