war journalism

Frontline news coverage

War journalism is the practice of reporting on armed conflicts, covering combat zones, military operations, and their effects on soldiers and civilians.

War journalists document events through text, photography, or video while often facing significant personal danger, including injury, capture, or death.

The work raises ethical questions about objectivity, propaganda, and the graphic depiction of violence.

Her war journalism from the front lines won a Pulitzer Prize.
