Dangerous Exposures

Article Abstract:

Photojournalists covering war zones and areas of conflict risk dangerous exposure to bring their pictures to the audience. As journalists have lost their neutral status in war zones, they have increasingly become the targets of attack by different warring groups. Photographers take risks as it gives meaning to their job and satisfies their urge for getting a good picture. Photographers who have a humane attitude towards their jobs are unable to bear the situations in which they take the pictures. Most photographers, in due course of time, learn to minimize the risks involved in their job.

In America, justice for some

Article Abstract:

The enforcement of the First Amendment of the US Constitution ensures justice for the mainstream journalists, while the immigrant journalists are left out. The murders of some mainstream journalists were solved quickly, while those of the Vietnamese-American journalists were left unsolved. The initial interest of the US media and investigative agencies dampened as solving the Vietnamese-American cases required time and resources. The solution of such cases depends on how vocal the related community is, and whether the murders affect the general policies of the government.
