Mucho Mas MacMillan
WAMU's Diane Rehm ran a segment on the first half of her show today titled "Images from Iraq," the blurb for which stated:
"Some say America's news media is presenting a somewhat sanitized view of the war in Iraq. We'll talk about the challenges of getting and editing war zone photography."
Appearing on the segment -- along with an academic, a newspaper editor and a staffer -- was APADer-in-hiding Jim MacMillian, of the Philadelphia Daily News. Last Spring, MacMillan took a leave of absence from the paper to spend a year in Iraq as a member of the Associated Press photography staff that would go on to win a 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography.
A downloadable, audio file of today's show will be available on Rehm's website about an hour after broadcast.
