Reporting From the Danger Zones (with Nicola Careem‪)‬ The Eastern Front

With authoritarianism on the rise worldwide, the work of journalists has never been more important for holding rogue regimes accountable. But for that reason, it has also become increasingly dangerous. On this episode of The Eastern Front, Giselle, Dalibor, and Iulia welcome Nicola Careem, vice president and editor-in-chief of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, to discuss how journalism has changed in this era of great powers. How do journalists navigate the harsh realities of warzone reporting, whether through physical threats to their lives or media censorship? What are some of the particular risks inherent in reporting from the "gray zone"? What processes can organizations put in place to protect their frontline journalists?
