As foreign news bureaus continue to shrink with the decline of print media and reduced funding for internationl coverage, journalist Terry McCarthy makes a case for the value of keeping foreign correspondents in the field. With his vast experience in the war zones of Afganistan and Iraq, covering historical events such as Sadam Hussein’s trial, tracing the origins of the “underpants” bomber in Yemen, or covering Egypt’s recent revolution, McCarthy’s insights will no doubt be sprinkled with lots of stories and anecdotes to make it a fascinating evening.
