Ep.256 - "Moral Courage" W/ Anthony Feinstein

For the 1st time in WG history, I'm not hosting! For this very special interview, I got my friend; ISOS Alum and Freelance Journalist Brandon Hill to come through and host an interview with Neuropsychiatrist Anthony Feinstein.

In what is the most timely interview ever, Feinstein talks to Brandon about Conflict Journalism through the lens of his new book "Moral Courage: 19 Profiles of Investigative Journalists" - off the back of the most deadly time for modern journalists - and what we can all learn from people that do important work under consistent threats. 

A globetrotting interview that gives you a glimpse of how countries see journalists and why moral courage is something we all should harbour.

ADDITIONAL LINKS FROM BRANDON:
  • Numbers for the humanitarian crisis in Yemen were taken from the United Nations
  • Numbers for casualties of children in Gaza and around the world taken from Axios
  • Numbers for civilian casualties taken from Axios and given in an approximate range using numbers from the Gaza Ministry of Health (which does not separate civilian casualties from combatant casualties) and an Israeli study that estimated civilians made up 61% of casualties from airstrikes. 
  • Numbers of journalist casualties in Gaza taken from NPR and the Committee to Protect Journalists.
  • Numbers for civilian casualties in Ukraine taken from the United Nations.
