Being a war correspondent is it as dangerous and controversial as people imagine

Being a war correspondent isn’t as dangerous and controversial as people imagine.

Being a war correspondent has both sides good and bad. Here are some good ones:
- war correspondent makes people known about war but especially about the amount of wounded, killed.
- He shows the reality of war by shooting pictures or making interviews.
- He shows it as sympathetically and compassionately as possible.

Bad ones:
- There is always the risk of death or injury
- he can loose his mind because he doesn’t know what to do in some situations.
- The family of the correspondent live in a big fear because the correspondents abandon their houses for months sometimes without contacting
- They can be kidnapped by guerrillas

In my opinion war correspondent is very intrusive, exciting, interesting job. After seeing the photographs made by correspondents some people become more sensitive, they start to react. Its true that there is always risk but the money, which are given to good correspondent, are enormous. Photographers can become famous because of pictures they do. If I had a chance to be war correspondent I would be but just for a few weeks. I think I couldn’t be so far from my family.
