Overcoming Mountains
The 24-hour news cycle started in the early 1990’s during the Gulf War. The world (me, especially) were glued to their television sets viewing live 24-hour news coverage. Gone were the days of the 6:00 and 10:00 p.m. evening news. Watching what was transpiring halfway around the world, I quickly became impressed with the bravery of war correspondents putting their lives on the line to report the war. Despite safety protocols, however, dangers surrounded these journalists as accidents occurred.
