Breaking News by Martin Fletcher
Martin Fletcher doesn't claim to be a hero. Yet he didn't flinch, either. During three decades covering wars, revolutions, and natural disasters, Fletcher worked his way from news agency cameraman to top network correspondent, facing down his own fears while facing up to mass killers, warlords, and murderers. With humor and elegance, Fletcher describes his growth from clueless adventurer to grizzled veteran of the world's battlefields. His working philosophy of Get in, get close, get out, get a drink, put him repeatedly in harm's way, but he never lost sight of why he did it. In a world obsessed with celebrities, leaders, and wealth, Fletcher took a different route: he focused on those left behind, those paying the price. He answers the question: Why should we care?MARTIN FLETCHER is one of the most well-known television news correspondents in the world, and he's quickly establishing himself as a writer as well. Five Emmys, a Columbia University DuPont Award, multiple Overseas Press Club Awards, and the National Jewish Book Award are among his many honors. Fletcher and his wife Hagar have three sons together. He was the NBC News Bureau Chief in Tel Aviv for many years and is currently located in Israel and New York, where he is an NBC News Special Correspondent. Breaking News, Walking Israel, and The List are some of his other works.
