Should TV Reporters 'Risk' Their Lives To Bring Us News?

  I think this depends on their professionalism. Their job is to bring news, now it depends on their dedication.....till what extent they can go, or what the situation demands. I mean if bringing a news worth their life, then its their professional duty to do that.

  it's a much tougher job than it seems........ like Barkha Dutt gave a great coverage in Libya where even sound of firing was easily being heard..............
  a nice reference:- no one killed jessica 😀

  In my opinion, they only create an 'illusion' of risking their lives. During the 9/11 attack all reporters were kept a long distance by the police, yet they'd show as if they were directly at the gunpoint.
  
  PS: War correspondents are exception to this.

  we are living in a society where different people have different job roles defined/preferred/opted.
  the defense part is solely an best example, these people live far away from their home just to let people sleep peacefully.

  As for 26/11 incident the reporters were hopeless. They gave away the positions and strategy of our brave soldiers just to increase their T.R.P is it good?
  The terrorists could see on T.V the directions from where the soldiers were attacking. All this is hopeless.
  The reporters however ' risking their lives' is unacceptable to society. They should be responsible and should commit themseves to show true and sensible 'truths' to society.
  But sometimes keeping mum is also essential.
