The Best Worst Job in the World: http://bit.ly/4EGqmt Our senior editor has not had a "regular job" in several months - due to several issues.

Sacrificialism
Sacrificialism: The sad but important portmanteau of sacrifice and journalism. Apparently researched in depth and at great risk by the great expository journalist Terry Gould. Mr. Gould made a recent appearance on Book TV discussing his great work Marked for Death (American Title) before the CPJ. Mr. Gould discussed the international problem of local journalists facing death threats and dying for their reporting on corrupt regimes in such places as; the Phillipines, Colombia, Irag, Russia... Mr. Gould's dialogue boiled down to the essential fact that local journalists were/are sacrificing their own lives in order to inspire others to pick up their fight against corruption through reporting.
