BBC's Media Show on Journalism & Trauma

On today's edition of BBC's Media Show, host Ed Stourton, ABC reporter Richelle Hunt, Global Editor for Multimedia at Reuters Chris Cramer and International Editor of Channel 4 News Lindsey Hilsum discuss how journalists can best be supported when covering traumatic events. Their varied experiences--Hunt's recent coverage of the Australian bushfires, Hilsum's coverage of the 1994 genocide in Rwanda and Chris Cramer's years as an editor and experience as a hostage during the 1980 Iranian embassy siege--make for an interesting exchange.
