It takes extraordinary courage to be on the world’s front lines, reporting on events that are often hard to look at: war, uprisings, crises, and insurgencies. Day and night, journalists have to fight to get their - and our - questions answered. They have to contend not only with the challenges of their physical environments but also pushing for facts and the truth. In this episode, J.R. Lowry sits with a remarkable guest who has been reporting from the world’s front lines, Jane Ferguson, who is a special correspondent for PBS NewsHour, a contributor to The New Yorker, and a former journalist for CNN and Al Jazeera. Jane takes us along her journey from growing up at a time of instability in Northern Ireland and how that influenced her to pursue a career in journalism. She also talks about some of the stories she's covered that have taken her from Sudan to Somalia to Yemen to Abu Dhabi and more, bootstrapping her way into very difficult places as a young journalist and covering undercover stories far from the competition. Join Jane as she tells us her incredible experiences of navigating the turmoil of the world, all for the drive to deliver the stories that need to be shared.
