Here at US Democrazy, we watch the news A LOT. So the news correspondents that bring us our daily stories almost become our best buddies. Our buddies do not only share the news with us but sometimes SHAPE the news we see.
In the clip above, CNN’s Anderson Cooper stops his news reporting to help save a boy from a group of looters. The clip is somewhat graphic, yet it shows the chaos of the situation in Haiti without many words.
Anderson Cooper is not the only one reporting from dangerous parts of the world.
In the episode above, journalist Mariana van Zeller reports from Sri Lanka, on that country’s war on terror. One of the world’s most dangerous terrorist groups, the Tamil Tigers has caused chaos… but defeating them comes at a high cost.
This mini news documentary comes via Current TV’s Vanguard program.
Vanguard has also done interesting reports on contraband rings in US prisons, the prescription drug problems of South Florida, factory outsourcing, and the Somali pirates (just to name a few).
