[Music] i thought why in the world am i doing this here i am risking my life unnecessarily why am i doing this i want to tell people what's going on in the world i want to try and get it absolutely right and convey all that's there i have a passion about that and i feel also passionately about what i see [Music] when journalists talk about a front row seat in history that is literally what we had from the balcony we saw a unique historical era blown to bits [Music] people think that being a journalist is glamorous it's not it's potentially very deadly work i've been very very lucky others unfortunately have not [Music] they fly from their comfortable beds to face bullets and bombs in foreign lands i love going to war um i'm excited by war fighting is the easiest story in the world to cover it really is easy it's very very dangerous and may require being in good physical condition but not much more than that because it's happening for you you have to say to yourself look i'm obviously not going to get out of this alive so i don't need to worry about that i can put that out of my mind for journalists war reporting is perhaps the most compelling work of all but it's also a career that claims more than its fair share of casualties we all got into this job because we wanted to make an impact but you don't realize the impact that that might have at least of all on yourself the effect on survivors was blind i spent five days in chechnya and i said get me out of here. it was horrific we think bosnia was bad we think sarajevo was bad i just thought i can't cope with this and i thought this is absurd absolutely absurd we're going home which is the the place you go to after a war when you've been as lucky as we've been of course the demons are there and i i've been told that i scream in my sleep you know um i'd be fascinated to know who told you if you'll excuse me i just want to break off because we've had some incoming sniper fire in this program we meet the war correspondents who risk their lives for us and we hear the stories behind the stories that have made our daily papers and news bulletins we also trace the increasing risk to journalists over the years as more and more die in accidents friendly fire incidents and in recent years at the hands of soldiers and armed civilians who seem determined to kill the messenger [Music] [Music] it was billed as the war to end all wars and it was the first truly modern war with tanks and chemical warfare and moving pictures and millions dead but from a reporting point of view nothing much had changed in world war one from the previous century the reporters of those wars embedded with the troops nearly a century before the pentagon coined the phrase did very little reporting as we now know it for governments of the time had no desire for people at home to know the true horror of war but reporters both then and now have been charged with being the eyes and ears and sometimes the conscience of a nation at war i've seen people killed in front of me and even if they die quickly it is a moment of intense disgusting obscene pain that no human being man or woman should ever have to go through wars represent for me the total failure of the human spirit you see the most venal awful things and you see wonderful heroism and humanity and compassion as well as hatred everything is there there are others many many others in those places who are much more endangered than we are the ordinary people who have no choice whether they come or go and for whom there is no glory and no front page and no pulitzer prize to be won war reporting is the most competitive branch of journalism there there is it's there are there are winners and losers one of the things i tried to against the trend especially in the towards the end of my years was to get people to work together rather than to work against each other because they were getting killed for competition and for prizes and to be reporter of the year it's crap but it's not worth it for months past mussolini has been sending the flower of italy's manhood to africa even his own sons are serving in the italian air force the wings of the roman eagle ready to kill and to destroy in 1935 a nasty little war broke out in africa 10 million dark-skinned tribesmen untrained in modern military tactics armed for the most part only with spears but in a frenzy of determination reporters were sent from around the globe to abyssinia to witness the tragic results of benito mussolini's imperial ambitions amongst them the 22 year old correspondent of the mourning post of london there were some fairly poignant scenes when the abyssinians paraded what they thought was their army i mean many of it bare footage and not even uniformed there was quite a lot of picturesque reporting to be done about this ragtaros army facing the modern italian army all that made a certain amount of drama they may well hold their own against a modern army after all at close quarters a spear can be as deadly as a rifle and then it was always the weather which was eccentric who came up on the railway and the movement of the emperor the emperor the railway and the weather not perhaps the stuff of modern war reporting but just three years later a new war threatened all civilization in the early years of world war ii when american naval convoys made their way to europe the exact status of the war correspondents aboard was somewhat ambiguous they were given officers uniforms with a big c on the arm my first assignment shortly after pearl harbor uh was covering the atlantic battle to beat the submarines and i was on a battleship on the first major convoy going across and i was wearing this uniform and for a couple of days i've kept going to the ward room and it seemed to me that it was a very quiet group uh i i matter of fact it seemed to me they even quieted down as i approached i couldn't figure this out until about the second night i was finally in conversation with a group of them and one of them said by the way what religion are you and i said oh i'm kind of a jackass episcopalian and their eyes kind of opened up and uh and they said what do you have a church and so not really i i don't go as regularly as i should and now their eyes are even getting wider you know and one of them said well uh when you well did you go to a seminary or what i said no no no no no nothing like that i said well uh how long have you been a chaplain the chaplain they assumed because i was introduced by the chapel i had this big c on my own i was a chaplain world war ii was to provide a unique opportunity for journalists radios had arrived in every home and a new breed of war correspondents emerged hello america this is edward murrow speaking from london men like edward r morrow this afternoon the prime minister left his residence at number 10 downing street the last survivor of morrow's team of reporters is richard c hotlat in 1945 hotline accompanied an airborne invasion of germany but gone more than he bargained for [Music] probably the closest i came to being killed you were hit by flank it sounded like somebody hitting us with a sledgehammer we were flying very low altitude was eight or nine hundred feet the the number two engine was on fire and the crew chief came out and rang the gong and the gong on the on the b-17 was the signal to get out and i quickly hitched up my parachute and followed one of the colonels out the door i was the second one out the man behind me did not make it he had what was called a streamer his chute did not open and he hit the ground vital supplies oil and guns and ammunition as well as reinforcements of manpower trudging east from gibraltar on a voyage of a thousand miles in 1942 with the war going badly for the allies the largest naval convoy ever to leave britain's shores set out for the strategically vital base on malta to provide food and oil to the beleaguered islands defenders newsreel cameraman ted candy was on one of the 78 ships once they reached the mediterranean the convoy was attacked by german and italian planes and u-boats just five merchant ships got through and candies laden with thousands of tons of aviation fuel and ammunition was not one of them the deck opened like a beautiful rose on fire i was on top of the wheelhouse filming the attack when the captain came out of the wheelhouse and said abandon ship every man for himself and then i jumped straight over the side the sea caught fire and that was the only time i was really frightened we had to report then that our cameraman edward candy was missing believe killed we have splendid news this week he is safe he was picked up and he reached the shores of tunisia on his return to britain candy went back to work again and then in 1944 he was ordered to film the biggest military and media event ever the d-day landings at normandy [Music] stars and stripes reporter andy rooney landed in france on day four of the invasion i think there were six thousand people killed on d-day alone and i came in on d4 and it was one of the most wrenching scenes of my life the graves registrations unit imagine working for the graves registration unit had brought the dead bodies picked them up on the beach or right behind the beach and had laid them all out in a row on the beach and they they all had olive grab blank i'll draft blankets over them and i i just it's such a memory for me here they were all lying there boys all so different and their feet sticking out with these gi shoes on their shoes all the same and the boys so different i never got over that all that still haunts you it does it's that's one of the few haunting memories i have of the world war ii those poor bastards who died on the beach gee though they could largely go where they liked the many thousands of accredited allied war correspondents during world war ii was still required to wear uniform and were subject to military orders and discipline we had just hit a bump in her jeep and my helmet had flown off and it had rolled into the snow in a field there and i told the driver to stop and i want to get pick up my helmet and i've suddenly realized there are a bunch of signs there all of them warning against mines aktung minen in four or five languages and uh so obviously i wasn't going to go into that field just to recover a helmet even if general patton insisted on everybody wearing his helmet he'd have to understand if he caught me which he wouldn't i thought we hadn't gone a mile down the road the crowded highway convoys when here we heard a little siren saw the little red light flashing and here comes his jeep and they pass us and sure enough if they don't scream to a stop his aid is out of the jeep a kernel pointing me and said okay soldier where's your helmet where's your helmet and i said well i'm not a soldier i'm a correspondent he went back to the jeep and you could see him explaining this to patton i could almost see patton's lips and i can tell you that they weren't crazy in the press exactly for all patterns anger and in spite of all the danger only 39 journalists were killed during the six years of combat of world war ii less than 20 years later vietnam [Music] [Music] stop what's that sound everybody look what's going down nothing had prepared me for any minute in vietnam because the emotions were so profound but nothing prepared me for seeing dead vietnamese dead gis nothing everything came as a shock i never quite got used to it and i never quite got the swing of it i could never never accept it [Music] gloria emerson was one of the few women to cover this war in the jungle and deltas of south east [Music] asia prior to going to vietnam gloria reported on fashion from paris she had to fight her male bosses to get sent to saigon the whole idea was so foreign to them and went against their culture they would have a generation of men who thought that men are supposed to protect women and it wasn't their fault and they thought the war was over when they decided to send me at the end of 69 and it was safe to send me wrong they were they didn't want me to get killed it would have been so embarrassing one dead white woman is an awful mess glorious editors in new york may never have had to deal with that awful mess but did she cover the biggest story of her time any differently from her male colleagues the male press corps was constantly following the american troops to report on any action in the field as though this were the only way of testing themselves but i wanted to write about the vietnamese people in the south and how the war was touching them or not and i had a brilliant interpreter and we set off to do this uncertain and trembling and vietnamese talked to us i don't know why but they did [Music] no man ever wrote about the vietnamese people they considered it slightly effeminate to do that kind of astoria when there was a real war going on in grenades and mortars and tanks and armored personnel carriers so not for you the stories about the 101st cavalry making well sometimes i had to do the one hundred and first cavalry sometimes i got caught up and there was an operation and i had to go along when the americans went into cambodia i went along and got into trouble and was ambushed on route one coming back and they were very cross with me in new york very close goddammit we're in the middle of this shot they seem to be pinned down by snipers one possibly two armed personnel carriers that preceded us in here have been blown one behind us as a the 700 or so reporters who went to vietnam over the years had complete freedom to report the war as they wished what'd they get hit by i don't know no comments take care seconds later the boy is dead blown to bits when the tank exploded there was no question i'd look because on probably three or four or perhaps five occasions shot down the helicopter must have been 200 holes the sound man got hit by a spent bullet just bruised his arm didn't break the skin repose reposes went down again in the helicopter and it was a very heavy landing as they said just walked away from that so yeah lots of luck part of the challenge was to be smart and try and stay alive try and figure out where the war was how to cover it and hope for enough good luck that you could a report it and be make it back alive [Music] we took an awful lot of risks there and i think we went much further to cover the war much much we took much greater risks then personally than i think people do today if you don't have luck forget it become a bus driver you simply can't succeed in war reporting unless you're an immensely lucky person and i am incredibly lucky person this is the first time we've been up highway 13. it isn't just luck instinct superstition experience all play a part in staying alive if you come to a village and there are no chickens around turn back because that means either the villagers have gone with their chickens or the vietcong have taken their chickens and they're around so i looked through my binoculars and there were no chickens no movement i was with the french crew and i said well what do you think and they said well it's up to you i said let's forget it let's go somewhere else let's look for the war somewhere else today and at that moment um a lovely photographer french photographer called michelle laurant turned up he worked for ap i'd known him a long time very brave photographer and he said let's go down together we'll be okay and i said no michelle that there's nothing moving down there i don't like it it looks wrong come on he said you know now micheal was especially anxious because he'd been away for a month he'd had personal problems at home he'd gone back to paris and they'd sent a replacement and that young replacement got some great pictures so michelle was desperate to get to the status that he had been when he left i said misha you go we're not going at that moment and a car turned up with another young french photographer and we showed persuaded him to go down by the time he got back to saigon we learned that michelle and the photographer were both dead they've gone into the village they've been fired at the michelle was hit uh the other guy was dead by that time um and as michelle got out of the car they machine gun him down michelle laura was the last of 63 journalists to die in vietnam i was prepared to die accepted the fact i had a note in my pocket who to call and at times i almost wished i would die be so much simpler just check out not have to make sense of the memories it was so difficult it was just a question of more difficult less difficult a blacker nightmare a whiter nightmare there is no in-between i see trees of green red roses too i see them blue the war degraded us terribly and it deformed us what a wonderful world too much death too many burns too many blinded too many amputees too many prisoners too much beautiful land being destroyed by the bombings and ancient orange i didn't know it caused quite so much pain for so long having pressured for so long to be sent there does gloria emerson ultimately regret going to vietnam yes that's the question that endures yes would you be different if you hadn't gone yes how would you i'd be working for vogue and i'd have a rich husband who was a broker and we'd have a house in southampton and i'd be drinking every afternoon not a bad life i don't think as a journalist you can go on pretending your stories made a difference they were like ice cubes they melted who was saved who rose from the grave what was prevented all that writing all that typing what happened because of their stories very little [Music] you must leave now take what you need your thing will last for 150 years now men and more recently women have been going to war not to fight but to tell stories [Music] at a time when the risk to reporters is actually growing why are an ever increasing number more than 3 000 in the last iraq war so anxious to sign on as war [Music] correspondence you know it's exciting um you know that it's totally unpredictable you also know that if it's if it's happening big it's going to be the lead story i like like every joke i like to be the lead story i mean what a privilege you can say stop hang on i'm going to tell you something just one thing that's significant please listen and look that's a fantastic chance it's kind of the last adolescent profession you know that's not to say i think it's something i should be irresponsible about but damn you can have a lot of fun doing this you know you really can put aside all the all the horrors and it's fun you know i fly to crazy places i rent cars i hand them back in terribly damaged condition we rent nine bmws in three weeks in south africa covering the state of emergency everything from being stoned to hold sumps to petrol bombs to mad drunken zulus hacking into the roof with a with a hatchet you know and i didn't have to pay for it all i had to do was survive it you know yeah surviving modern warfare with its factions zealots and martyrs is getting more difficult for reporters competence on all sides are increasingly disregarding the idea of an independent media if it ever existed many parts of the world don't like us anymore this sort of magic about journalism i think has evaporated there are factions and there are some governments around the world who wish we were not there and there are some who wish we were dead as bluntly as that we are atm machines we carry lots of money we carry lots of expensive shiny equipment so we're a target for robbery as well but i think the underlying reason is that there are large parts of the world that don't like us and hate us and that is very scary [Music] in the nicaraguan civil war 25 years ago when the u.s supported dictator anastasia samosa battled it out with left-wing sandinistas one reporter sent to cover the conflict found himself suddenly under fire as the rounds were ricocheting and people were dying i thought what a way to die what the hell are you doing here in the heat and the turmoil of nicaragua instead of back in the states with your wife and your two young children there were a couple times when i thought my work was idiotic when i thought i was an idiot for exposing myself to potential death and i was not doing it for glory i was hired as a journalist because i wanted the income as well as the personal fulfillment of being a journalist but not at the price of dying president samosa is telling businessmen and shop owners that they need not be afraid that they can open up during his spell in nicaragua bernard shaw had to leave the country for a few days and asked his office to send in a short-term replacement veteran correspondent bill stewart flew in from new york he was doing a segment where soldiers were sitting around a campfire playing a guitar and singing and he moved down the road he and his camera crew cameraman jack clark and they were in this van he had the band stop and on foot he approached this guard checkpoint and he showed his press pass pediolisti journalist and this one soldier with an m16 rifle pointed at him and told him to get down on the ground [Music] well bill first knelt still saying i'm a journalist and the soldier pointed again to him to lay prone on the ground and he did the soldier walked up lowered the barrel of his rifle and fired one round into the base of his skull let him see the picture the camera in effect it summarily executed it samosa and his government claim that abc news correspondent bill stewart was executed by sandista guerillas what they did not know was cameraman jack clark rolled on everything there was the evidence the upshot is as soon as president carter and all the officials in the american government saw that videotape that was the beginning of the end of anastasio samosa's regime [Music] if i had not called new york and asked if they send in someone to cover for me bill stewart would be alive today i'm convinced of that [Music] my job was to record the history happening in my country where random roadside justice was the order of the day saria samora is a unique war reporter an african reporting on african wars for a world audience the election slogan was the future is in your hands so the rebels chopped the hands off anyone they could find to stop them from voting when sorrius went to liberia to report on their civil war he was thrown into prison as a spy i was tortured we brought knives threatened to cut open my chest eat my um heart and use my blood to write christ amura you know espionage in liberia during war means death you know you have to face the firing squad so we were charged with that and we we went to court and even with all the the um very powerful lawyers we had from the uk and liberia nobody could listen to them um the verdict was that um we should be taken into prison and we should be shot but fortunately like i said we had all these powerful backings and that made a difference but for me um it wasn't about us it was about those people that might still be languishing in there and they had nobody to talk for them as far as they were concerned this child was the sniper he would be shown no mercy how can you forget those traumatic events how can you forget looking at an 11 12 year old boy being bitten by six seven very very grown up military men how can you forget seeing a pregnant woman having her stomach split open because they want to see what sex how can you forget a nine-year-old boy being forced to rape his own mom um how can you forget things like those people have this cliche about oh life is cheap in certain areas no death is cheap um it's very easy to be killed it's very very easy to get killed and sometimes of course you can do nothing about it a house comes down on top of you but other times it's a snap quick decision do you cross this road or do you stay where you are they've hit the building with another shell i've got to run but i know they're shooting in the street do you run or not and you suddenly say this is the right moment go go and you're committed to it you can't turn around the military says stop i made a mistake you can't do that so there is this one thing it teaches you is to make up your mind and be decisive while print reporters can usually choose when to run or when to hide television journalists must always seek out the action this army was launching into an unarmed civilian population as if charging into battle in 1989 in china the wide expanses of tiananmen square became a killing field as troops fired at random into crowds of demonstrators and passers-by troop lorries were seen moving down the road there was gunfire from those lorries i was beginning to think that our chances of staying alive were very poor and the cameron decided he would stay in the lee of a wall near a ditch at the fairly well protected in the shadow and i would run for it and go back to the hotel it wasn't far away with the video and as i started across this immense expanse of the corner of the square hundreds and hundreds of yards the soldiers opened up and there were hundreds and hundreds of students running in all directions total panic it was terrible um it's lit by the glare of these horrible sort of lights and it was it was hellish they're shouting stop the killing and down with the government someone collided with me i stunned into me and fulfilled i was going at full pelt and he went down i fell right over him i felt also pain when i went into him and later on i discovered the whole part of my elbow was ripped away not a graze but a sort of burned thread and that was the bullet that had hit him i fell over him he was dead [Music] as we lay huddled on the ground bullets whistled inches above us surely the big question inevitably asked of all reporters who go to war is whether or not they feel fear as they deliberately put themselves in harm's way for the benefit of their readers listeners and viewers it's got an immense advantage you become invisible directly you put it on no one even glances at women here and they get the worst seats in the vehicles what goes through the mind of a war reporter as he sets out once again to bring home tales from the front what i do know is that there's only three really bad times one is the night before you leave and you spend what you think maybe your last night ever in in your own bed the second is when uh you say goodbye to your wife your partner your family whatever and you head out on your own that's a bad bad feeling and the third time is when the wheels of the plane touch down wherever you're going and you think right up until now i've been able to pull out of this i've been able to remember a prior engagement now i'm here i'm stuck you know and there's an awful sinking in the stomach you definitely feel different shades of emotion when you're trying to take cover when there's random shelling some bastards up in the hillsides you know and there are shells coming down they're landing you've no idea where because you don't know what they're aiming at they're just plonking stuff on the town especially if it's mortars which fall anywhere it's a guessing game and it's very unsettling [Music] you can also find yourself facing someone with a gun and you know by his words and appearance his demeanor that he intends evil against you kurdish guerrilla groups have accused iraq of carrying out more gas attacks they say chemical bombs were dropped on two villages yesterday and 50 civilians were killed correspondent john simpson has visited the kurdish town of halabja viewers may find some of the scenes in his report disturbing we went in low to halabjae in an iranian air force helicopter hugging the hillside in order to keep away from iraqi planes and artillery fire i saw the bombs coming down with the gas in it and getting closer and closer to me um i i was uh terrified by it terrified and i was at halabja three days i think it was three days after saddam hussein had killed five thousand people in the city the iranians maintained that three separate types of gas were used you could tell which type of gas had been used to kill that particular person there was a certain small amount of mustard gas which doesn't by and large kill you but does disgusting things to you brings you out in these huge boils and blisters and of course does awful things the breathing and the eyes and things that last for the rest of your life but of the two gases that killed people the nerve gas seemed to me to be absolutely disgusting strangles you from the inside so the awful contorted bodies of people who died that way and then weirdly the victims of cyanide poisoning who had clearly died almost instantly i remember finding a body of an old man whose head lying on his dining room table uh taking still taking a bite out of a piece of bread his teeth still stuck in the bread died like that and you think um when the bombs are coming down you think oh god make it the cyanide please make it the cyanide don't let it be the nerve gas don't let it be the mustard gas i don't want to live like that genocide comes in many forms in rwanda some 800 000 innocents were murdered in 100 days in 1994 while the rest of the world stood idly by i'm sure hang on don't let yourself go cause everybody rwanda has left a lasting impression on the journalists who witnessed the aftermath of this genocide i had never seen anything so brutal i thought all this was in the past this idea that the people could be slaughtered with clubs and machetes it was like nothing i had ever seen in my my life before just when you got there in in a in a jungle you would expect to smell gardenias and flowers which you could but the air was always scented with rotting corpses there were rotting corpses everywhere actually wish we could get the smell of death in television news i wish people that watch these pictures could actually smell it i'm convinced that would that would end it all and suddenly somebody noticed that one of these bodies was moving baby she wasn't more than four months old and she was the only one who was still alive she had a big gash on her head big cut and i remembered blades of grass and dirt had got into this cut but she was awake her eyes were very weak been lying in the sun for a day but her eyes were very lively and she was looking around her and there were no nurses no doctors no aid workers no soldiers with medical training just us you know it's clear what you have to do you don't run rush off trying to find the leaders of the militia trying to interview them so we picked her up i was driving and we were about 25 miles away from the nearest town this huge convoy on foot of a million or whatever it was blocking the road i remember driving down this road with my hand permanently on the hooter saying get out of my way please get out of my way and trying to get this little girl to hospital we took her into the hospital and we said we found this little girl she'd been lying in the sun she's close to death but she's still alive she's dehydrated clearly and and the doctor said okay looking around found a set of keys went to a cupboard and he pulled into i thought he was going to pull some medicine or something i don't know and he pulled a notebook out a form he said okay what's her name i don't know what her name is she's uh we found her lying in a i'll just put x then shall i eventually another doctor arrived and saw the urgency of the situation and took her off and then his mood suddenly changed and he saw that something urgent was happening and he started giving her quite intrusive injections and then there was a moment when the life just slipped away from her and you could see that she was dead this war between hutu and tutsi left nearly a million mostly tootsie dead and a million more refugees mostly hutus on the move and in camps but these desperate displaced people also had a guilty secret for amongst their number were many who had carried out the genocide on their tutsi neighbors the un sent in an unarmed convoy with much needed food to one of the hutu camps accompanied by reporter james mates and cameraman john steele we came to this camp that had about 50 000 hutu refugees it was the middle of a high volcanic plane the sun was beating down it was absolutely miserable existence no water there were a lot of soldiers there rwandan government soldiers who two soldiers they weren't supposed to be there we were warned by the commander not to take any pictures because there are no soldiers here only take pictures of the refugees okay there are no soldiers here i got you i got you we drove into a place to offload the food for the refugees on the way we passed three heavy artillery pieces that were engaged in firing heavy shells into kigali i managed to get a couple of shots of it we tried swapping tapes real quick in the back of this truck but we didn't realize that we've been spotted as we were offloading the food the soldiers came and demanded the tape and were accusing us of being spies and then left us to the crowd his last words to us were i have no use for you you may leave if you can we got back into our trucks and we were immediately surrounded by a mob that grew and grew and grew then the machetes came out then the clubs came out then people would come up to the windows and scream and start going that we're going to take off your head we were absolutely convinced that we were going to die we started telling each other i hope it's quick i hope it's quick and then somebody would say well i don't think it's going to be and in a strange way there's almost this camaraderie that that builds that you're supporting each other you know we're going to die together you know this is it we are going to die together we're here out of this crowd this fellow appeared in the window in a dark suit and an umbrella and a briefcase and he pops in the window and he says are you two gentlemen from moscow hello you know excuse me but he says the gentleman in the truck behind us behind you said that you're from moscow and james and i had both worked in moscow so we're chatting and he's looking around at the crowd and he's saying where are the soldiers they shouldn't have left you here they they know what would have happened and he he said he was a school teacher and he would try and help and he walked out into the crowd and he by now it's like 1500 people i guess and they're all they are dancing they are getting themselves worked up you know that they're going to kill you they're just waiting for the right moment to do it and he started talking to them and saying they're they you know they're they're they're not the enemy they're not with the tootsie they brought food would they if they were enemies would they bring food to you know to the hutu if you kill them there'll be no more food so the crowd by this time was like this dead-eyed monster it was it was a thing it wasn't individuals it was one mass of of murder waiting to commit the crime they could taste the blood they were they were really worked up and ready for it and he came sort of like they calmed down a bit and he came to us and he said drive out slowly leave just please leave and we left and as we started working to the crowd i looked in the rearview mirror and i saw him with his umbrella still talking and the crowd sort of centered on him and then the truck turned down the road and we lost sight of him later that night when james and i got back to uh kigali at the un compound we were sitting there eating our mres and i said to uh james you know that guy that schoolteacher and he said i know and i said do you believe in angels james and james said yes i do and i think you should too we in the west have perhaps become used to death in africa but throughout the 1990s this same brutality came rather closer to home as neighbor fought neighbor in the streets and farms of europe in some of the most savage conflict imaginable romania croatia bosnia places to which only recently tourists had flocked and olympic athletes had competed became war zones that was the first time i think i heard guns fired in anger and i remember timiswara and being astonished by the sight of people who had been injured in europe in my day by gunfire by in effect civil war i thought this can't happen in europe and i remember seeing this young man he must have been about my age 28 or 29. at the time and he'd been shot in the chest or in the neck and he was on some kind of ventilator and he was lying on a bed with a rubber sheet and the indentation that his body was making in this mattress was gradually filling up with his blood and as his chest rose and fell his his elbows were dipping in and out of the blood and i thought that's a bloodbath it's literally a bloodbath and i'm never going to be able to use that term again by the early 1990s times had changed there were more women in the field and the balkan wars gave them their big break it was sexy it was fun there were big gangs of us and i think that's part of the attraction and i think if you can be honest about it you can say there were wars that we went to that we actually felt we could you know be useful and do things and i think i certainly felt in the balkans that we could be useful and we could do things and it was important to bear witness i was keen and young and i wanted to do a good job i wanted to see what was happening i'd covered the collapse of the soviet union but this was the first conflict and i had no idea no idea at all i arrived with a notebook a pen and a map we didn't have flak jackets we didn't have helmets we didn't have satellite phones we didn't even have mobile phones in sarajevo in the evenings we would sit and we'd drink bottles of whiskey i hate whiskey but it numbed it numbed us and we needed to do that um and it wasn't partying the way a teenager in london would go to a rave it was it was anesthetic it's a very intense place you know and i think probably i can't invite for the sex but there's probably a lot of drink there is a lot of drink but i also think when you're in places that are really quite dangerous you sort of need to keep yourself together and i think the days of vietnam when you know or or cambodia where you kind of the lads went to the local den and smoked opium and got laid you know we've become a much straighter society you know i think people use sex in the same way they use drugs or alcohol as a way of escaping as a way a momentary fleeting escape from the horror outside the balkans also attracted the well-known veterans of war reporting but even for them this was something new but it is it is difficult bosnia was different to me because we were in the middle of it for so long because it was about civilians it was about flags and civilians and the driving of people from their homes it was about the weakness of the western democracies it was about a failed state and journalistically it was about journalists who were you could no longer pretend that they were just onlookers bystanders we were caught up in the middle of it sarajevo was a very dangerous war because you couldn't um there was no way of figuring it out in vietnam you could largely figure out what was going on most of the time um in the countryside in bosnia you could figure out most of the time what was going on but in sarajevo it was just a question of when and where a show was going to hit it was fired by by some serb in the hills i like to tell stories i like i think people there are certain things people should know they need to know that that sounds egotistical and aren't i a grand person that's not the case it's that i just think that it's such a worthwhile thing to do to tell people what's out there because you're not going to change the world but at least for example in sarajevo i think we all thought at least no one will be able to say we didn't know because by god you did because we told you and if you don't fix it at least you can't say we didn't know the united nations secretary general has urged pulling out u.n peacekeepers from the bosnian capital sarajevo the attack on the red cross in sarajevo earlier this week a blatant sign that no flag and no charity is respected in this conflict late last night to the huge by the 20th of may 1992 after suffering unprecedented casualties the red cross the un and the international press corps had all decided to leave sarajevo on mass there would be no independent outsiders to bear witness any longer but one reporter changed his mind and returned i got into the heart of the city and abandoned my car which was very shortly thereafter hit by a mortar and destroyed so now i was in the same position as everybody else in the city and i knew that my paper would be very unhappy with my being back there having left and having no agreement to be back and i calculated since it was a friday that they wouldn't even notice that where i was until the monday when the editors senior editors were back in the building in new york so i had 48 hours to tell the story of this astonishing medieval attack on a great european city the whole city was a flame and i was just about to write my story when a young boy in the flat where i'd taken refuge came running and said there's something you've got to see it was about four o'clock in the afternoon of the sunday and i said to him i really you know i've seen enough i'd um no you must come so with a certain amount of ill humor i had followed this boy and headed up what's called the walking street to the point where a few days earlier a serb mortar had hit a crowd of people queueing for bread there to my astonishment in this utterly deserted street was a man in full evening dress on a steel chair right on the spot where the mortar hit playing a cellar playing albani's adagio [Music] i was terrified to be there i hid in the lee of the buildings on the side from which the artillery fire was coming and literally mortar mortars exploding into the masonry all around it when he was done he picked up his cello and came up to me said what on earth are you doing he said well you know that many of my fellow citizens died here and i am the leading cellist to the serious area of a symphony orchestra and that's all i know what to do is play [Music] cello [Music] once prompted you to say [Music] [Music] my [Music] where is [Music] yesterday [Music] [Applause] [Music] to survive sarajevo was a turning point for reporters covering war they had to figure out new ways to protect themselves from an enemy that could be anywhere in a war with fewer boundaries than ever [Music] before everything changed for me in the summer of 1992 i was driving across the airport runway in sarajevo which was a free far zone no man's land in my vauxhall carlton got quite badly shot up and the vauxhall carlton actually stopped one of the bullets to which i which i wrote later and thanked vauxhall for making an armored car without knowing it but i could razely have been killed and i got in touch with the bbc i said look we gotta have an armored car and they got me one in two weeks and that wasn't enough we had to have flat jackets and so on and we militarized ourselves in very short order the armored vehicles and the flak jackets may have helped save journalists lives but they came with a cost attached sarajevo is a formal town so he thought a navy blue vest would be appropriate i thought it was reckless not to wear a flak jacket most days in sarajevo even though it made you feel miserable and i don't mean because it was hot it wasn't hot i mean when you're wearing a flak jacket and you're doing the story in sarajevo and you're mixing among civilians on the streets who are not wearing a flak jacket it's a terrible terrible feeling one of the world's most experienced combat correspondents alan pizzi reports on the guns of sarajevo the opposing front line is only 50 yards from here and they only contact the two sides a double-edged sword flak jackets are a tool they should not become a prop and unfortunately i think they become a prop a lot of people go out there and think i'm a work correspondent because i've got a black jacket and they think i'm okay sorry you're okay from here to here the rest of you is not okay every journalist who survived the balkans and 84 did not has his or her own story of near death i have twice had bullets in my clothing um once in kosovo where a bullet hit my mobile telephone which was in a pocket um and it went through a large roll of banknotes deutsche marks 6 000 deutsche marks it was probably the bank notes that slowed it down and it embedded in the phone and i just got a very large bruise and a certain amount of blood another time i was um in sarajevo drinking a cup of coffee in someone's flat but on the front line leaned forward to have a sip leaned back there was a crack and where i was a bullet went but it did it nicked my arm and went through some clothing the balkan wars more than any other modern conflict left the present generation of reporters with indelible images of the violence and destruction [Music] in bosnia anytime a journalist would pull up the kids would just run out and starts you know yelling bon bons and jump up and down and we all carry little candies with us and we you know throw them to the kids and i took some candies and i was thrown passing them out to the kids and there was one little girl and she was holding my hand and squeezing it and she just looked at me she had this big smile on her face just a lovely lovely girl and they were all screaming for more and i said do you want more do you want more and she said yes yes yes molly mulling please please more more and i said okay wait here i have to go in this building i'll come back and i'll bring you more candies from the truck and all the kids jumped up and down and said oh wee-wee hooray hooray so we go into this building to talk to these army officers and while we're in there i can hear the kids through a window laughing playing in the street and we heard an outcome few outgoing rounds from like an ak-47 above our heads which would be the bosnian side going across the drina river into the serb side of sarajevo and then there was a sound of a high-powered round i knew it as soon as i heard it served sniper and the street went quiet and we sort of looked at each other and somebody said i hope to god nothing's happened out there and i knew immediately something had happened in my heart and i went rushing out and i saw some people screaming in the street an old woman and um i followed her eye line to the middle of the road and there was this little girl lying in the middle of the road in a pool of blood lying on her back and i didn't go rush up to her i didn't try and help i ran to the truck and got my camera and i started filming situation some men picked her up put her in the back of a car and they were actually blocking my shot [Music] and i grabbed one of the men in the back of the shoulder yanked him back and i went in with a camera and i was looking at her through the eyepiece i don't know if she was conscious or falling into unconsciousness but she just kind of looked into the lens and then her eyes just kind of lost focus and the car took off and went away [Music] today in a street just a few hundred yards from here a sniper claimed his latest victim a young life ended with a squeeze of a trigger in sarajevo they'd started to think the senseless killings were over instead marella's neighbors wept in frustration and anger you're killing innocent children this man screamed why don't you shoot me instead [Music] at the kosovo hospital the innocent schoolgirl was already a statistic and i was cleaning the dust off the front of the lens and i was looking into the glass of the lens and just dust dust and the more i looked at the lens the more something hit me and i was seeing my face in the lens and i was looking at my eyes in the lens and then i realized that that girl had seen herself in the lens my lens as she was dying and bleeding and it just hit me that the last thing she saw in her life was her own self dying i did that to her and then i just said i want to go to sniper alley to take pictures of people running and um terry said okay so we ran down there and he insisted i wore a flak jacket but what he didn't know is i was taking the plates the armored plates out of the flak jacket and we parked and he said what are you going to do and i said i'm going to run with these people and you know he said no you know what are you talking about you can't run with these people and i said i'm running and i said it's okay terry everybody dies in sarajevo i was trying to like brush it off with a joke but at that moment i really wanted to die i really wanted to take a bullet so i started running back and forth across the street back and forth across the street there was a big oak tree in the middle of the road that people would hide behind halfway and i just kept doing it till i couldn't run anymore and at that particular moment i was praying for a bullet i wanted somebody to kill me i wanted somebody to um take me out for what i'd just done and that's when i lost it completely and everything was a bit of a blur for the next few days until i wound up on having a nervous breakdown in heathrow airport in london for mirella the day had started with sunshine and friends it ended alone in a hospital mortuary john steele's most graphic pictures of mirella plotting the little girl he filmed that day were never broadcast and have now been lost but her image is with him forever a correspondent a reporter a scribbler a sound man even a stills cameraman can turn away the nature of television is that you have to let the action happen within the frame which means you have to concentrate which means you have to count which means you have to stare and you keep looking for pictures and looking for pictures which means you have to just look at this stuff you have to look at the blood you have to look at the carnage you have to look at the suffering you have to look at the faces screaming at you in pain and you take that in you are the camera it goes from the lens through the eyepiece into your eyes into your brain into your heart into your soul and it never leaves it stays there forever afghanistan is a country that has been racked by continuous war for more than 20 years in fact today's war on terror has its roots in a previous war in the 1980s the conflict between the russian-backed afghan government and the u.s supported mujahideen that earlier conflict gave one reporter an unusual introduction to a man who would one day become the world's most notorious terrorist this is the outskirts of the former soviet base of summer kale the mujahideen are desperately fighting to hold on to this whole area when they were filming an extraordinary tall and very i thought absolutely hypnotizingly beautiful figure came forward it has beard and uh in his 30s i suppose and uh there's wonderful white white clothes i mean how he managed to keep them so white and under such difficult conditions god knows um and he got up on a wall and he started shouting and haranguing the mujahideen and after a bit i said to the interpreter quite sort of innocently what's he saying and he says eyes saying they should kill you and i thought when about you why shouldn't they kill you as well you're the interpreter then i realized it was just us the foreigners the infidels and they had a vote about it there were seven of them and three voted in favor of the proposition that they should kill us then and there because we were infidels and four thought on balance business before pleasure let's carry on mortaring and then you know after that we can see this figure in white was furious and stormed off and went over to a um a truck driver who was sitting there in a truck that had delivered all the munitions for the for the merge mujahideen and uh and he was talking to him shouting at him uh we could hear that i said to the interpreter what's he saying nice is i giving him 500 to come and run you over we waited but the driver then shook his head and smiled and this figure in white went off uh in a terrible state and he was sleeping there on a bed in a sort of barracks and he lay down we all followed in afterwards the major dean and us and everything we saw him beating on his pillow and weeping in frustration you know i want to kill these people why can't they let me go anyway i mean i i didn't think very much more about it until i saw the first photograph of osama bin laden that was published in the papers and immediately you couldn't forget those sensationally handsome features in 1991 just two years after simpson's encounter in the afghan wilderness with the tall arab who would one day become the most wanted man on the planet america and its allies went to war against another arab enemy who had once been their friend saddam hussein of iraq that was a large air that we saw the outbreak of the first gulf war was reported live on air by the fledgling 24-hour news station cnn now let's return to baghdad we have three reporters in the al rashid hotel come back in there's a bomb that has come down now you'll probably hear the report at the refinery in just a minute we saw the bomb come down we saw the flash and you just heard an explosion and it was a big blast of uh bomb blast that came through this window i've just come from checking out the other side of the hotel and it's equally intense on the other side though 45 other western journalists were in the same hotel cnn had the only working phone line out of baghdad it felt like we were in the center of hell it really did and it smelled like it somewhat too the accurate smoke coming from power lines and power stations that were just exploding around us um and i had made my peace with the fact that i could be dead by morning in fact tom johnson then the president of cnn said that he did not expect the three of us to survive the night we were very much aware that our lives were in jeopardy in war one moment you're alive the next moment you're dead we knew that at any moment we could die the most harrowing moment for me came when the iraqis had less than a block and a half away from the omroshide hotel where we were on the ninth floor a soviet anti-aircraft missile battery a sam site and they fired three missiles from this launcher and i said oh oh you know what's going to happen next we knew that there would be a response by the um either british or american war planes and that response came within 25 minutes and it literally shook and rocked the hotel in fact we went to the floor we were on our knees we went out into the quarter on our floor to avoid you know the concussions and avoid possibly the walls collapsing that's how intense it was [Music] in fact none of the 1600 or so journalists covering the war were killed by allied bombs or friendly fire during the six weeks of hostilities of that gulf war it was to be a very different story 12 years later [Music] the days we'd camped in the desert watching the military build up as tanks and troops edged closer to the iraqi border terry lloyd was one of the most experienced war reporters of his generation terry lloyd went to war again in march 2003 our route would take us in the tank and tire tracks of the royal marines and the u.s expeditionary force who'd crept into battle positions during the dead of night terry deliberately chose not to become a so-called embedded reporter with the british or americans instead he and his crew hired two jeeps and worked as independents or unilaterals on the 22nd of march he filed this report this until a few hours ago was an iraqi frontline stronghold nothing much to see just a couple of porter cabins where the iraqi flag still flies but now the british the next day terry and his crew set out for basra shortly after passing some american troops to their surprise they then saw in the distance a small group of iraqi soldiers in pickup trucks and then suddenly i see to my left a car driving right next to me with some iraqi soldiers in there and they're looking at me and i'm looking at them and they're giving me signs like thumbs up and and showing they do like this this direction thumbs up and just at that moment this really heavy gunfire starts coming from sort of two o'clock that position first thing that went was the front window i dug down straight away i went under the steering wheel i protected my head and i remember that the whole interior of the car was blowing into pieces it was absolute nightmare i mean i was absolutely sure i was gonna die i was absolutely sure and i looked to the right a split second later and and terry lloyd is gone he's not in the car anymore the car is still going uh automatically i mean i i kept my foot on the pedal i guess and it goes off road i don't know you lose your orientation as well and then eventually the car stops i look up and i see that the whole rooftop is on fire i jump out just on time because then the big fire started it sort of exploded terry lloyd's body was later recovered but the other two crew members have never been found we got a critical patient needs to get out of here of the 15 journalists who died and two who are still missing from the 43 days of open hostilities five were killed by so-called friendly fire and five by iraqi forces with one more the victim of a kurdish suicide bomber it is the highest journalist casualty rate per week of war ever by far the largest number of dead reporters 10 in all met their end in saddam's capital baghdad and those who reported the war from there always felt they were the most vulnerable there were personal issues of safety that just simply cannot be underestimated with this war this is not just a straight danger from bombs and bullets the dangers were from the use of weapons of mass destruction the dangers were from chaos from civil disorder in the wake of regime change and carrying british and american passports don't forget and the danger was also of being used as human shields by a state that was about to be destroyed there was to be no massacre of reporters or hostage taking as saddam state was destroyed instead the iraqi national guard and saddam's henchmen appeared to disappear into thin air for the time being at least then on april the 8th the day before baghdad fell to american troops tragedy again struck the press corps journalists reporting this conflict in baghdad have also been targeted the offices of the arab satellite tv channel al-jazeera were hit by missiles killing a reporter and wounding a cameraman it was the second time al jazeera had been bombed by the u.s air force the first occasion being in kabul during the afghan war i think the shock was much greater this time around than kabul by far basically because we lost a very dear and what we believe a talented colleague but more importantly we felt safe since before war broke out we have been in communication with the pentagon we've given them all relevant details location of our office in terms of longitude and latitude the height of the ground the name of the street the name of the building the number of the building a description of the surroundings so we were very shocked to learn that actually in spite of all this information uh the commanders on the ground whoever took the decision deemed it important to send out fighter jets to bomb a very well-known media girl it struck me at the time that to be in the al jazeera bureau would be an extremely dangerous place to be because it was right in the heart of an area of possibly a square mile where the most serious battle for baghdad took place on that morning unlike what happened in kabul where the attack on the al jazeera office was deliberate there's no question about that and in my view utterly reprehensible i think we we are faced there with deliberate attacks on journalists to shut them up now i mean al jazeera is not my type of reporting um there's there's a lot about it which i which i don't like but then there's a lot about fox television i don't like and i wouldn't advocate anybody bombing fox to stop them reporting the way they want to report um actually if i'm honest about it uh and open about i think it's a war crime i'd like to know who gave those uh decisions and i would like to see those people prosecuted we don't deliberately target journalists we don't deliberately target civilians flat out now other other forces in the world i can't speak for them but i can speak for any u.s military force and say that's absolutely certain hours later an american tank fires at the reuters news agency in the palestine hotel where all western journalists are based the americans say they were responding to sniper fire but dozens of us were on the roof of the hotel and none of us heard any gunfire at all of all the places i've been to over the last 13 or so years and all the different conflicts and awful images within those conflicts i've seen the worst for me was seeing the dead body of taras proteus i'd gone up to try and help he was just lying there on his back and where his camera had been whether round had come in and he was a father i think he had a young son and it was 48 hours before the war ended some of what happened in the case of palestine was the difficulty of fighting any any urban area you can't always tell exactly where the fire is coming from you can't tell who is crouched with a shoulder-fired weapon behind something and who is crouched with a camera behind something especially at distance you can't always parse out the amount of time it would take to sort out exactly what you see and and so decisions are made at a very very low level and when that happens inevitably in warfare mistakes occur today we witnessed american forces fight in the heart of this city iraqis were caught by surprise as we approached the american positions we were stopped from filming because of what had happened at the hotel i just thought these are young american boys who are in a dangerous hostile city and hence going to meet the american soldiers when we got out of the car and walking towards them we held our arms open like this and walked towards them with tv written across bowing down like this i mean you really i mean that's the level of how afraid we were of course going to meet the american soldiers okay let me just cut in here right this is a roadblock we don't know who they are a little bit uncertain here they're waving in the last few years news organizations have started to train their staff with special courses to help them deal with the dangers they may confront in conflict zones since time immemorial a few journalists have responded to war by taking up arms themselves but a new sense of being specifically targeted has also led to a new phenomenon independent journalists protected by armed guards to create no fighting on sunday april the 13th cnn reporter brent sadler and his protection detail got involved in a gun fight in the town of tikrit machine gun opened fire to get us through there i think that's as far as we're gonna push it today brent sadler's team had been the target of a documented assassination attempt in northern iraq a few weeks before that um an attempt on the part of a faction to um throw explosives into the hotel that they were staying in before the war started so it would have been irresponsible of cnn not to ensure that brent sadler's team of all teams had proper under security again he was traveling with a security person who was not armed but there was a weapon in the car they were pursued by at least one if not two vehicles with heavy machine guns and came under fire at that point in time the security advisor picked up the weapon and used it and he saved their lives though i'm upset and down-hearted that it happened i'm not sure what the alternative would have been for brent saddle and his team to take a bullet for the cause is not the alternative i know what i would have done i would have picked up the weapon myself thank you very much now everybody out there if indeed you have the viewership you claim every idiot out there with a gun sees a car marked tv which we mark for our protection hey we're neutral no we're not we've got gunmen in there so why not shoot us first i don't like that at all that's very upsetting i accept part of the allegation that says that after it happened we made rather too much use of it i don't accept the allegation that we should not have transmitted it live because we were alive when it happened and it would have been i think a curious editorial decision to butt out of it that would have left the audience thinking what the hell is going on here but i'm i'm content i accept the allegation that we rate made rather too much of it in the hours after it and i think you know applying hindsight we should not i should not have done that i think that you really come dangerously close to crossing the line when you in effect become a combatant with the uh principles on the ground there that's a no-no we journalists for decades have operated under the fiction that having a press pass or a press card somehow is a fig leaf of protection there was a fox news reporter in afghanistan who made a very big show of carrying a handgun and how he was going to kill osama bin laden if he saw him that jerk endangered the life of every war journalist in the field from then on may 2003 near washington dc they have gathered to commemorate the journalists who died in action the previous year 2002 was bad 31 dead but 2003 will be worse far worse the keynote speaker is the father of daniel pearl the wall street journal reporter kidnapped and murdered by islamists in pakistan in january 2002 [Applause] in addition to being an innocent unarmed journalist pursuing the line of his profession danny was killed for purpose to his killers he represented the ideas that every person in every civilized society aspires to uphold modernity openness pluralism freedom of inquiry truth and respect for all people with total contempt for norms of decency and morality daniel pearl's kidnappers filmed him stating his jewish heritage before proudly displaying themselves murdering him with daniel's parents permission we show part of that my name is daniel video i'm a jewish american i come from a uh on my father's side in a family of zionists my father's huge my mother's jewish i'm jewish this emphasis on the journalists jewish origins eerily echoes the anti-semitism of hitler and the nazis but ironically daniel pearl's last words have made him a symbol of human dignity and freedom of choice few reporters die in quite such gruesome circumstances as daniel pearl but there is no doubt that journalists at war are now all too often fair game for any competent with a grudge award-winning cameraman and director james miller made his reputation covering war james's last project was to be a film about the effect of conflict on children he concentrated in his films on the lives of individuals caught up in much bigger situations and gave voice to those people he was a brilliant cinematographer and understood the power of the image and it was important to him for people to see those people and their stories and to tell the story [Music] on the 2nd of may james was filming his last sequence in gaza before heading back home he and his colleague cyrus shah had been tipped off that the home of one of the children in their film was to be demolished by israeli army bulldozers he had been filming for a period of four hours they were on a well-lit veranda filming both the bulldozers working um and the family then the bulldozers stopped working it had gone quiet in the area and they just they stopped filming um the there'd been no shooting for believe 45 minutes um it was quiet and the israeli defense forces and their two armored personnel carriers that were there had turned their lights off and their engines off they decided they could exit and leave the house they were given a white flag by the family james changed his helmet for one that had tv and fluorescent letters they were all wearing flat jackets with tv written on them and they walked slowly towards the two armor personnel carriers they were shouting all the time that they were british journalists and identifying themselves james had a torch that was lighting the white flag suddenly there was a shot they remained standing still um and some seconds later i believe 13 seconds later there was another shot that killed james he fell to the floor dead and sarah shah and his translator abude dropped down too there were then five more shots um and sarah became aware of a boob shouting loudly and then they began to realize that james was hurt there's a very small area between a flat jacket and a helmet which is will mean that a shot is fatal i don't believe it was a lucky shot i believe he was directly targeted there is a phrase in both the talmud and the quran he who takes a single life kills a world entire the bullet that killed james miller not only took the life of a distinguished journalist but took a husband a father a brother and a son the israeli defense force has held an internal investigation of james miller's killing but to date his family say they have received no adequate explanation as to the circumstances of his death and they are campaigning for an independent inquiry james was the fifth journalist to die at the hands of israeli soldiers since the start of the most recent palestinian uprising in september 2000 freedom of the press is the very essence of democracy so when the armed forces of democratic governments are involved in killing the messenger we should recognize that democracy itself is under threat and demand that those responsible are brought to account such is the threat to reporters today that since 1992 nearly 300 journalists have been killed in conflict and of them nearly 200 are believed not simply to have been accidentally caught up in crossfire but to have been deliberately targeted by their killers [Music] you
