my opinion
Why many countries send journalist to battlefields? Perhaps some people think like this. But I think this occupation is very important for us. It is true that there are many demerits for not only journalist himself but also government of the country. For example, going to battlefields is very dangerous, and the country have to pay ransom if a journalist are taken as hostage. But I think there are more merit for us. We people in peace countries don’t know what war is like, this might lead us to cause tragedy again. We should know what is happening in battlefield, and only journalist enable us to. To sum up, journalists is a part of us , I mean they are important for us.
sorry for late.
