UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
CATHLEEN COLVIN et al., Civil No. 1:16-cv-01423 (ABJ)
Plaintiffs,
V.
SYRIAN ARAB REPUBLIC,
Defendant.
Declaration of John Moore Witherow
I, John Moore Witherow, of 1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF, declare as follows:
1. I am the Editor of The Times, a London newspaper which was first published in
1785. From 1995 to 2013 I was Editor of The Sunday Times, where I met and
worked with Marie Colvin. The Sunday Times and The Times are owned by the
same publisher but are formally separate newspapers.
2. I submit this declaration to describe to the Court the circumstances of Marie's last
assignment to the Syrian Arab Republic and the reactions to her killing in the
world of journalism; the breadth and success of her career; and my expectations
about what more she might have done had she not been killed in Horns on
February 22, 2012.
3. All of my statements are based on personal knowledge unless otherwise
indicated.

My background and career
4. I have been in journalism since I was 19. I started my career when I went to
Namibia (then South West Africa) in 1970 hoping to teach in Ovamboland on the
Angolan border, and ended up working on a development project and working
freelance for the BBC Africa Service when I was denied the necessary entry
permit. In 1977, after university, I joined the Reuters News Agency's graduate
trainee programme, and was sent to the Cardiff School of Journalism, where I
obtained a distinction. I worked in Madrid for a year for Reuters before joining
The Times as a reporter in 1980. In my first few weeks at The Times , I covered
the Iranian embassy siege; and two years later in 1982, I covered the Falklands
war, where I came under bomb attack and witnessed the strike on RFA Galahad
that killed 48 servicemen and became the biggest single loss of the war. In 1982
I wrote a book about my experiences, The Falklands: the Winter War, with
Patrick Bishop, a war correspondent for The Observer newspaper who was later
married for a period to Marie. In the same year, I also spent six months in Boston
and Washington for the Boston Globe.
5. In 1983, I moved to The Sunday Times under the editorship of Andrew Neil and
served in several positions, including defence correspondent, diplomatic
correspondent, foreign editor, and head of news. I covered the Soviet withdrawal
from Afghanistan in 1989. I became Acting Editor of The Sunday Times after Mr
Neil's departure in 1994. I was confirmed as Editor the following year and edited
the newspaper for 18 years. In January 2013 I was appointed Acting Editor of
2 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 3 of 72
The Times and confirmed in the post in September. As Editor of The Times, I am
in charge of the newspaper's content and staff.
6. We at The Times and The Sunday Times believe that newspapers play an
important part in a free society, and we take our responsibility seriously to report
accurately and to pursue vigorous journalism. We believe such journalism is vital
for a flourishing democracy through its acts of exposing wrongdoing and holding
people in positions of power to account. This is especially true of reporting from
within wars zones and from hostile environments, an increasingly challenging
and daunting mission for any reporter and media organisation.
Marie Colvin's last assignment
7. I knew Marie Colvin for over twenty-five years as a colleague and dear friend. I
first met her in the newsroom at The Sunday Times sometime in 1985, when she
joined the newspaper from United Press International in Paris. My first
impression of Marie has stayed with me. She was a whirl of black curls, a force of
nature. I came to know her as committed to her vocation, wilful and determined,
and, while prepared to take risks, never foolish.
8. Marie had a quiet authority and immense charm and wit. When she arrived, the
newspapers in London were caught in the turmoil of industrial action by print
workers. Pickets circled the building from which The Sunday Times was printed.
Marie quickly made her views known: "My god", she said, "I'm not hanging
around here. I need a real war to go to". Marie died on 22 February 2012 in the
Baba Amr neighbourhood of Horns, Syria, covering such a "real" war.
3 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 4 of 72
9. The Sunday Times had been reporting on Syria's descent into war since 2011 . In
Dera'a that year, the Syrian government opened fire, killing four people in a
peaceful protest following anti-government slogans appearing on walls about the
arrest and alleged torture of 15 young people. The city of Homs became the seat
of opposition as Syria descended into chaos.
1 10. On February 5 h, three weeks before Marie was killed, she and her colleagues
filed an article about the escalating violence in Syria from Beirut, Lebanon. They
reported that "[t]he fighting in Syria spiralled yesterday into the worst violence
since protesters began their uprising against the regime of President Bashar al-
Assad almost a year ago. More than 200 men, women and children were killed in
Homs ... ". 1 "There are growing fears of a civil war, with the FSA not only
controlling parts of Hams, but also fighting in Damascus, the capital". 2
11 . Marie reached Syria on or around February 15th, even though we knew that
foreign journalists were unwelcome there and that Homs was becoming
increasingly dangerous. lt was typical that Marie felt compelled to be in Syria as it
tipped towards civil war. In November 2010 she gave a speech in
commemoration of war reporters at the church of St Bride's on Fleet Street in
London, known as the journalists' church. She said, "Covering a war means
going to places torn by chaos, destruction and death, and trying to bear witness ..

As Editor of The Sunday Times, I oversaw the publication of this and the other Sunday Times articles exhibited with this declaration. I personally managed the publication of all articles from the 26 February 2012 issue of The Sunday Times, which commemorated Marie. Each of the articles exhibited herewith is a true and correct copy of the original publications. 2 Id.

.. lt has never been more dangerous to be a war co rrespondent, because the
journalist in the combat zone has become a prime target."3 She saw it as her job
to bear witness and I know she believed passionately in the importance of her
work.
1 12. On February 19 h we published her first on-the-ground report from Hams. She
was the only journalist with a British newspaper inside the city and was
accompanied by our photographer, Paul Conroy. She wrote in detail of the
growing despair as "international diplomats dither".4 Five thousand Syrian
soldiers were believed to be on the outskirts, with residents fearing a ground
assault. She told the Foreign Editor, "lt is sickening that the Syrian regime is
allowed to keep doing this".5
13. Marie and Conroy were working from a makeshift media centre in Baba Amr run
by anti-government activists. They left Baba Amr temporarily, so they would not
1 be there when their report was published on Sunday February 19 h. Marie
dictated that report to our newsroom by satellite phone, offering a haunting
glimpse into the battered city: "Crammed amid makeshift beds and scattered
belongings are frightened women and children trapped in the horror of Hams, the

Syrian city shaken by two weeks of relentless bombardment."6 Marie and Conroy
1 returned to Homs on the 20 h.
14. On the evening of February 21 51 I remember Marie giving interviews from the
media centre to CNN and the BBC; she told ITV news, "The Syrians are not
allowing civilians to leave ... anyone who gets on the street is hit by a shell. If
they are not hit by a shell they are hit by snipers. There are snipers all around on
the high buildings. I think the sickening thing is the complete merciless nature.
They are hitting the civilian buildings absolutely mercilessly and without caring
and the scale of it is just shocking".7
15. Unknown to Marie, Conroy had written to The Sunday Times foreign editor, Sean
Ryan, "I suspect that Marie's high profile due to this week's material in paper and
TV interviews also compromises our safety". Ryan replied that they should leave
at the first opportunity.8 Marie resolved to leave Hams with Conroy on February
23rd, but was killed by what appears to have been coordinated shellfire in the
early morning of February 22°d.
16. I heard about Marie's death on the morning of February 22°d, 2012, as I came out
of a breakfast meeting with a chief executive at a hotel in London. My phone rang
and I was told by the Managing Editor at The Sunday Times that reports were
reaching us from Syria that Marie had been killed. I could not initially believe the
news. Rumours like this often come back from the field and are often

exaggerated. As I reached my office at the newspaper, I was told that the reports
had been confirmed through Conroy. Remi Ochlik, a French photographer, had
died with her. Edith Bouvier of Le Figaro and their translator, Wael ai-Omar, were
injured alongside Conroy.
17. I was hugely shocked by the news on a personal and professional level. The
reaction to Marie's death from friends, colleagues. politicians and the media was
immediate and overwhelming: grief. disbelief. a profound sense of loss. The loss
to society was recognized by then-Prime Minister, David Cameron, who told
Parliament shortly afterward that "[t]his is a desperately sad reminder of the risks
that journalists take to inform the world of what is happening and the dreadful
events in Syria and our thoughts should be with her family and with her friends".9
News of Marie's death spread rapidly around the world.
18. While the press inquiries flooded in and the world reported the deaths, at The
Sunday Times we tried to focus on getting Conroy out alive. We and Marie's
family were also still faced with the enormous task of recovering Marie's body.
Sean Ryan and I, together with other senior staff, worked with the British Foreign
Office and contacts in Syria. including the British ambassador to Syria. Simon
Collins. and his French counterpart, Eric Chevallier. We were in constant contact
with Marie's family and with Conroy's family. Ray Wells, our picture editor, and
Miles Amoore, a foreign correspondent. were dispatched to Beirut to help
coordinate the rescue operation. Hala Jaber, another foreign correspondent. left
for Damascus to liaise with Syrian officials. We received scores of letters of
9 See id.
7 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 8 of 72
support from readers for publication, expressing distress at Marie's death. We
also turned to our duty to report what happened. All this amidst our personal
shock and grief.
19. I wrote a piece entitled ''The silver girl sails off into the night" drawing on my
personal memories and the many reactions and tributes I received over the few
days after she died from friends, family and colleagues.10 In it, I shared my
memories of Marie, which I believed captured her zest for life and fun and wit;
and her tremendous commitment and contribution to our understanding of human
plight in war. I wrote how in a conversation on The Sunday Times website two
years before, she had said: "I am always moved by the people I encounter in
horrific situations. But that is what war is all about. The mothers, kids, soldiers".11
20. The edition of February 26 was our tribute to Marie. My piece was accompanied
by others who worked with her. Jon Swain, a distinguished former Sunday Times
war correspondent, wrote about Marie's final movements, her communications
with the foreign desk, the moment of the shelling.12 Christina Lamb, another of
our foreign correspondents, wrote that we suspected that the media centre had
been targeted. "If, as we suspect, it was targeted because they were telling the
world what the Syrian regime was doing to its own people . . . we should be
outraged". Lamb further explained in her piece that repressive regimes knew that

8 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 9 of 72
killing journalists could deter others from reporting the story. She also observed
the limitations of social media, which is now widely used and can fill information
gaps when journalists cannot get in, but cannot carry the power of the words
which Marie had shared. 13 Experienced and well known reporters capture the
public's imagination in a way which citizen journalists cannot. Hala Jaber in
Damascus and Miles Amoore in Beirut wrote about Conroy's injuries and the
attempts to rescue him and the injured French journalist. 14
21. I attended Marie's funeral in her home town of Oyster Bay, Long Island , on 12
1 March 2012. On May 16 h a memorial was held for her at the Church of St Martin-
in-the-fields in London, attended by family, friends, colleagues and dignitaries.
The attendance at both services showed the tremendous esteem in which Marie
was held . In Long Island, the ceremony was a low key affair, but outside, I
remember how Syrians opposing Assad congregated. In London, friends and
fellow journalists attended to pay their tributes. The foreign secretary, William
Hague, was present.
Marie's career in journalism
22. Marie worked hard and deservedly had a truly extraordinary career. Her articles
speak for themselves. She covered the Iran-Iraq war, reported from the West
Bank in the 1990s, remained in Baghdad through the Gulf War bombing in 1991 ,
and witnessed the American bombing of Tripoli in 1992. She was the first

A-7). 14 Hala Jaber & Miles Amoore, Last-ditch bid to save journalists, THE SuNDAY TIMES, Feb. 26, 2012, at 1 (Ex. A-8).

reporter to enter Kosovo from Albania in 1999, with a special forces unit trying to
open up a supply line. She reported from Chechnya, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe and
Sierra Leone. She knew and interviewed Gaddafi and Arafat.
23. In 1999, during the East Timorese crisis, Marie and two other journalists refused
to leave a compound in Dili, East Timor, where over 1,000 women and children
and staff were left without United Nations protection from Indonesian forces. Her
television broadcasts spread the news across the world: due to her visible
presence, the compound was spared from the attack and the refugees were
eventually evacuated. Marie wrote:
"lt was horrific but I stayed because the women and children in the compound were going to be deserted by the United Nations and I was not willing to countenance another Srebrenica. lt was a difficult decision and led to one funny moment. When my press colleagues evacuated, I decided to stay but did not get on my satellite phone to ask permission from my foreign editor, who I should have consulted. I called him when all the trucks had left for the airport, and stayed with the rear guard and East Timor families. He went ballistic, and rightly so. "What do you mean all the other newspapers have left?" Well, they have. "What do you mean all the wire services have left?" Well they have. "What do you mean ALL THE MEN HAVE LEFT?" To his credit he printed my response, "I guess they don't make men like they used to."15
lt was just one example of the real impact Marie had on world affairs.
24. In 2001 Marie was the first foreign reporter in six years to enter the dangerous
Vanni region of Sri Lanka. She was ambushed returning from an interview with
Tamil Tiger leaders and seriously injured, losing sight in one eye. She wore her
signature black eye patch from then on. lt was a distressing price to pay for the

10 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 11 of 72
work she loved. She wrote after the event, "WHY do I cover wars? I have been
asked this often in the past week. lt is a difficult question to answer. I did not set
out to be a war correspondent. lt has always seemed to me that what I write
about is humanity in extremis, pushed to the unendurable, and that it is important
to tell people what really happens in wars- declared and undeclared. My job is
to bear witness. I have never been interested in knowing what make of plane had
just bombed a village or whether the artillery that fired at it was 120mm or
155mm. War is also about propaganda. Both sides try to obscure the truth". 16
With unending resilience she wrote, "I am not going to hang up my flak jacket as
a result of this incident".17
25. Marie received a legion of accolades for her work. The glittering prizes testified to
the high esteem with which she was regarded by her colleagues and reflected
my own view of what an exceptional and accomplished war reporter she was.
Few reporters have the temerity to be a war correspondent; even fewer display
the insight and sensitivity with which Marie wrote. After her death, The Sunday
Times collated her published work in a volume entitled On the Front Line: The
Collected Journalism of Marie Co/vin. I am sure it will be well read by students of
journalism and young reporters hoping to pick up all the skills Marie had. Marie
was and continues to be a source of inspiration for young war reporters, including
many young female reporters who currently work for Times Newspapers. Some
of them knew her personally. All of them admired and respected her.

11 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 12 of 72
Marie's role in war reporting
26. Only a handful of newsroom reporters can become successful war
correspondents, not least because it requires huge bravery. Marie followed in a
long line of war correspondents, including at The Times and The Sunday Times.
Her contribution has to be seen in context to be fully appreciated. She more than
lived up to the traditions she contributed to and was in my view the leading war
correspondent of her generation.
27. War reporting has always held a special place in journalism. lt has become
essential for democracy that independent journalists, whose reports can be
trusted by the public, can speak truth to power and report the truth from places
which are otherwise inaccessible. Without the presence of reporters on the
ground in hostile environments, news reports would be limited to propaganda
from repressive regimes and from third-hand tales of atrocities. Eye witness
accounts, such as those Marie wrote, add another dimension altogether to
information which is otherwise controlled by governments in its content and
distribution.
28. The Times' records show that overseas events were , until the 18th century,
haphazardly reported, with newspapers relying on personal letters, journals or
navy or military bulletins for information. In 1807 The Times appointed its first
staff correspondent, Henry Crabb Robinson, who reported from the Peninsular
War. William Howard Russell of The Times reported from the Crimean War,
returning to England a hero in 1856, and is widely credited as the original war
correspondent.
12 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 13 of 72
29. The role of war correspondents like Marie has not been diminished by changes in
technology and the increase in the use of social media. Social media
proliferates, but well-written, reliable reports from inside war zones are unique to
the traditional press. Our correspondents still have the unique advantage of
being deployed with the backing and contacts of a large news organisation.
These help our war correspondents reach difficult territories and find the truth
with all its rich context. In fact, Marie's writing was made all the more unique
because of the proliferation of social media. The importance of war reporting
could not be greater in our age of misinformation.
30. Although the nature of the challenges which reporters face in the field has
changed over time, the tremendous personal risks they must take remain.
Marie's death had a significant impact on war reporting. Only major news
organisations can afford to provide the backup, security, and support required to
deploy reporters to hostile zones. A death deters future assignments by less well
resourced organisations. After Marie's death I had to think long and hard before
deciding to continue to send my reporters to Syria. Morale was low and there
was a sense of vulnerability, as well as shock. Syria was becoming impossible to
cover.
31. But we determined that we could not allow that to be Marie's legacy. If we were
to cease reporting from countries whose regimes try to prevent accounts of their
terror from reaching the international community, we would be conceding defeat.
Marie would have been outraged at the prospect. Thus, despite Marie's death,
Times Newspapers and their staff remain committed to war reporting, even
13 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 14 of 72
though this often comes with a high price. For example, Anthony Loyd, war
reporter, and Jack Hill, photographer for The Times, were shot and kidnapped by
a rebel gang while on assignment in Syria in May 2014. Incredibly, they escaped
and continue to report from dangerous zones. Loyd, another leading war
correspondent of our generation, had won the Fo reign Reporter of the Year
award earlier in 2014, for exposing the use of chemical warfare by the Assad
regime. Those reports would not have been possible had we called a halt to
sending reporters to Syria.
32. However, we do not know what Marie would have gone on to report, given her
experience and contacts. I have no doubt that had she survived , she would have
continued to be at the forefront of reporting on this and other conflicts. Without
Marie, there is one less voice - one of exceptional experience, insight, and
compassion - explaining what is really happening in a conflict which continues to
tear Syria apart with devastating consequences for its people.
Marie's future
33. Marie's future would without a doubt have been as remarkable as her career
already was. She was world-renowned for her reporting and for her resilience,
warmth and humour. She commanded professional respect and would have
continued to cover Syria and world events had she survived the attack in Horns.
34. After her injury in Sri Lanka Marie asked to become freelance for a short period.
Her contract with The Sunday Times in subsequent years allowed her to work
freelance as well, albeit subject to some conditions. lt would have been possible
for her to make even more time to pursue her own projects which could have
14 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 15 of 72
included books or documentaries. And she had no dearth of stories to tell. In
1990 she appeared in the BBC documentary Arafat: Behind the Myth. She also
featured in the 2005 documentary film Bearing Witness along with four other
female war journalists.
35 . Marie never discussed retiring with me and I was not aware of her plans to
reduce the number of assignments she took on. She showed no signs of slowing
down and was in good physical health - her prior injuries had never interfered
with her work. There was no ceiling on her reporting for The Sunday Times and I
had no plans to reduce her assignments unless she asked me to. Dedicated
journalists tend to work as long as they enjoy their work, and for someone like
Marie, her work was a huge part of her life. As long as I remained her Editor I
would have been willing and keen to ensure she worked for as long as she could,
even until her seventies if she wished. That could have included shorter or less
risky assignments or allowing her to take longer breaks.18
36 . lt is hard to imagine Marie doing anything other than what she wanted to do,
which was to be in the field. But if she had chosen to, as the years went by, she
could have picked up any number of commissions, projects or speaking
engagements. There are certainly reporters of Marie's calibre who have
successfully done this and been well paid. There would have been few more
desirable or experienced insightful speakers than Marie, and she would have
been highly paid and in demand. Her earning capacity in that sense is
18 I doubt such shifts in assignments would have affected her income, as I would very probably have compensated her experience at that stage at a higher rate.
15 Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ Document 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 16 of 72
exceptional; her selling point, uniquely above most others. She had, as I
described in my piece to her when she died, a winning combination of "guts and
glamour"19 which would have translated easily into the speaking circuit.
37. I cannot imagine that Marie would have retired to a quiet life, hanging up her
boots. Again, in Marie's words, "Going to these places, finding out what is
happening, is the only way to get at the truth. lt is not perfect, it is a rough draft of
history. But historians come later. You see such huge injustices happening and,
as a reporter, you have the chance to tell people about that. .. . The point is to
try to report as truthfully as you know how, about what you see and make that
part of the record. You can 't get that information in a war without going to a place
where people are being shot and they are shooting at you. The real difficulty is
having enough faith in humanity to believe that someone will care". 20
38. The Syrian attack of February 22, 2012 cut short Marie's exceptional contribution
to journalism and her work opening the world's eyes to hidden atrocities. With
Marie's death we all lost a remarkable, indefatigable reporter.

Please start sending your questions for Marie about what life is like on the frontline and anything else you want to ask. Jules, staffs You recently spent time with the Afghan Army, and noted how professional and committed they had become to their task of fighting the Taliban and working with foreign armies. Was yesterday's attack hopefully a one-off, or is it possible that the Taliban have more influence among the ANA than previously thought? Marie Colvin Yesterday''s attack was so disheartening, Jules, for the reasons you say in your question. The Afghan soldiers I was with have a long way to go but their commitment was something you rarely see in our pampered times - tears in their eyes for example when they described how they had learned to read and a ferocioius desire to remake their country. Not all the details of yesterday's attack are clear yet but it was very much the act of an individual. I, and people I have spoken to in Helmand today where the attack took place and where I spent three weeks recently,Case 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ believe it is a one Documentoff. Several 42-12 junior Filed soldiers 03/22/18 I have Page contacted 62 of 72 in Lashkar Gah say their Afghan counterparts have come up and hugged them in a desire to shown their solidarity. Ben Will there ever be enough political will in the Middle East - and beyond - to solve the Israeli/Palestinian impasse? Marie Colvin Hi Ben. That is a great question because while the world is focused on Afghanistan and Iraq the Israeli-Palestinian issue is at the heart of Islamic anger and spreads to create conflicts across the Muslim world and feeds their anger with the West as we are seen to be supporting Israel./ I think there is hope for political will in the change we are seeing in the Obama administration . The Israelis, even though they now have a right wing government in Netanyahu, now know there is no free pass. It remains for the Palestinians to get their act together and quickly - you can't have two negotiating addresses, one in Gaza,, one in Ramallah. Mariella, London What's the closest you have come to being killed in the line of duty? And what makes you go back for more? Marie Colvin Hmmm. that's an easy one! being hit by an RPG and losing an eye. I remember lying in the middle of a field, blood coming out of my mouth, and thinking this is taking an awfully long time to die. So I yelled doctor. Mr Davids, London The 15th anniversary of the Srebenica massacre has just passed, do you think the Yugoslav wars as a whole - and that incident were so shocking to Westerners because the events unfolding involved white Europeans? I would be keen to hear your point of view Marie Marie Colvin Mr. Davids you have a good point. It was shocking because we are a bit holier than thou, aren't we? Tut tut those barbaric Muslims etc go to the Daily Mail. It was a real wake up call wasn't it? #That said, I certainly write about massacres in the Middle East and places like East Timor, such as the mass graves I found when I was in Iraq after the fall of Saddam, and I am proud to write about them and proud that I work for a paper that prints them in all their horror. Richard, London What do you miss most about Britain when you are covering a long conflict abroad and how do you keep sane? Marie Colvin A drink! Most of the places I report from are alcohol free, which is probably good for the liver. Seriously Richard,Case I miss1:16-cv-01423-ABJ friends and the Document freedom 42-12 to wake Filed up 03/22/18 and wander Page to 63 a of book 72 shop without a worry that I will be kidnapped, shot or blown up. So I guess the answer is the great relief of not having to be wary all the time. Rod Stanley, Old Street South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission appeared to take a country which could have tipped over into civil war into a situation where the formerly opposed communities are content to live peacefully together. Was this solution something exclusive to SA, or could/have other countries used it? Marie Colvin It's an apposite question, Rod, because it would be the best model in Afghanistan. Military and diplomats and pretty much every Afghan agree that the solution cannot be military which means that the Taliban must be brought back into the equation of government. But for that, they would have to be forgiven great violence. As the saying goes, one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter so I think it could work in Afghanistan. What is missing is a Nelson Mandela - his strength and courage really showed how one man can make a difference to history, didn't it? Rod Stanley And on a completely different note, I would be interested to know how you personally have adapted to working in the digital era. What challenges have you faced and dealt with, and how do you think readers' expectations of international reporting has changed? Many thanks. Marie Colvin Well Rod that is a question that couldn't be more relevant to me because I am pretty much a senior citizen in this game - I started filing from Beirut on a telex, believe it or not. (Younger readers, you will have to google for yourselves to know what a telex is). I think to start I was a bit of a technophobe - but not only do I have to adapt to keep my job, it makes it faster and better. I file by satellite phone for example from Helmand. It means I can stay longer, and get out the story I really care about in a timely fashion. For example, when I was covering the Ethiopian Eritrean war I had to drive a full day to the front line, and then report, and then drive all the way back to the capital (another day) to file. The down side is the foreign editor can always get me! It no longer works to say sorry all phones were down! Grace Ackroyd, London Do you find it difficult to maintain a professional distance from the situations where you are reporting from? Or are you serving the people in an under-attack area better by presenting an unembroidered version of their misery than if you went for the full emotion? Marie Colvin Total objectivity is a myth. I am always moved by the people I encounter in horrific situations, but to me that is what war is about - the mothers, kids, soldiers , in other words always remember people fight wars not the guys who press buttons somewhere in Tucson Arizona. That's why I cover wars on theCase ground, 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ not from press Document conferences. 42-12 Filed 03/22/18 Page 64 of 72 That said, I think I don't help either the victims in a conflict, or my readers, by giving one long harrowing witness statement. I try to make the reader aware of what is happening, but also to put it in some kind of political context. Hope that answers your question Grace? Frank, Brighton Your time in the UN compound in East Timor sounds unbelievably horrendous. How did you get through it? Marie Colvin It was horrific but I stayed because the women and children in the compound were going to be deserted by the United Nations and I was not willing to countenance another Srbrenica. It was a difficult decision and led to one funny moment. When my press colleagues evacuated, I decided to stay but did not get on my satellite phone (see earlier!) to ask permission from my foreign editor, who I should have consulted. I called him when all the trucks had left for the air port, and stayed with the rear guard and East Timor families. He went ballistic, and rightly so. "What do you mean all the other newspapers have left?" Well, they have. "What do you mean all the wire services have left?" Well they hav e. "What do you mean ALL THE MEN HAVE LEFT?" To his credit he printed my response, "I guess they don't make men like they used to." Staying in the East Timor compound was one of the moments in my life of which I am most proud. I refused to leave until the women and children were evacuated. They got out safely, finally, because I kept broad casting (again, thank you satellite phone!) that the UN was about to do a final evacuation of staff and leave them behind. Charles Woolf Marie, what's the best way to become a foreign correspondent....find the most remote newsworthy place you can, buy a ticket out there and start writing? Mary in Wokingham Marie - how on earth did you get in to foreign reporting? Was it a passion or did you fall into it by accident? Would love to know Marie Colvin Hi there Charles and Mary, do I detect budding foreign correspondents? Your parents will probably be more of a threat to me than the Taliban when they read my answer, but I think it's the best job in the world. Interesting, and you can really feel you make a difference in the world which I believe we all want to do, Practical: number one, do NOT go to journalism school. That works for careers like political reporting maybe but it just loses you time if you want to go to foreign reporting. You can do it two ways. Fly off to a place like Kabul, making all the contacts before you go with editors to tell them you will be there, and making lots of safety checks before you go. That is what our young man in Kabul did (Miles Amoore) and he is a star. The other way isCase to get 1:16-cv-01423-ABJ any job at all on Documenta newspaper 42-12 or television,Filed 03/22/18 even Page if it 65is justof 72 the back up coffee deliverer, and work hard. Hugo Evans Marie, this may seem like an odd question, but where do you go on holiday? It must be somewhere that there is no chance of anything interesting happening!! Marie Colvin This will seem even odder than your question, Hugo, but I ocean race for my holiday - I sail boats through storms and the Fast Net and Middle Sea race and boy does it clear the head! Just in case life gets too safe... Sean, Berkshire Don't you ever want to settle down and write book reviews? How much longer can you keep doing this for? Marie Colvin Forever, Sean. We know who you are. Tough luck. ST News Much amusement after Marie's last answer as we have a sneaking suspicion that Sean from Berkshire may be Marie's boss... Eve, Brixton You presented a documentary about Martha Gellhorn - is she one of your heroes, and why? And who are your other heroes and influences? Marie Colvin Martha is my hero, Eve, well spotted. I take her book on war reporting with me on assignments, and it gets me unsuck just reading her simple and powerful her prose, Of all my awards, I was proudest that this year I won the Martha Gellhorn award for stories that "cut through the official drivel". You ask why - because she reported just the way I think is important, put on your boots and get out on the ground where people are. Oh and also, because the last time I saw Martha was at dinner, she was ill and in pain, and I asked her how she was. She said old age was awful, she could not drink whiskey anymore, just beer. Donald, Edinburgh Do you need to have a black sense of humour to deal with the scenes you find yourself in? Marie Colvin A quick final answer for this hour - gosh, thought it was going to be like a party, nobody comes, nobody loves me, and it's been great and interesting questions. Black sense of humour really keeps one alive. After a long day, week, whatever, you have to laugh.

Stupid I would feel writing a column about the dinner party I went to last night. Equally, I'd rather be in that middle ground between a desk job and getting shot, no offence to desk jobs. You can only describe what I do as 'stupid' if you agree wars shouldn't be covered by journalists, or think they should be reported by way of government press conferences. If journalists are to report on what really happens in war, on the atrocities and pain and death, they are going to face risks. For my part, the next war I cover, I'll be more awed than ever by the quiet bravery of civilians who endure far more than I ever will. They must stay where they are; I can come home to London.

Let me make clear, I am not from the 'yes, but' brigade. I despise what Osama Bin Laden stands A bitter taste for for. I despise the ways of the Taliban. But this war is being fought vengeance in our names, and it is our business. Explaining something, trying RAM ALLAH to help people to understand it, does not mean support.
