RIP Sydney Schanberg

Everytime I read Sydney's reporting it was as if I was there and witnessing everything before my eyes. I wish there were more like him today

When his fixer Dith Pran died, the NPPA magazine News Photographer talked about Schanberg's reporting and how it placed you on the bridge when the Khmer Rouge entered Phnom Penh -- and how today, the first graf is the news and the second graf is reaction, followed by forward analysis.
