Listen Later

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with veteran foreign correspondent Arwa Damon about her recent mission inside Gaza. Damon started her career covering the Iraq War. She joined CNN, where she served as senior international correspondent and reported on war zones in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, South Sudan, Libya and elsewhere. She won a Peabody Award and three Emmys, including one for her coverage of the Battle of Mosul in Iraq, where she came under fire from ISIS militants.

On Press Club, Damon describes what life is like inside Gaza right now after 7 months of bombing, why this war has been so dangerous for journalists, and why the suffering in Gaza is different than any other war she's covered.

This episode was produced by Brandon Reschke.
