Neil Arun didn’t want to miss a rare but risky opportunity to embed with an Iraqi police unit, hunting members of al Qaeda. But his employers -- responsible for Neil’s security -- weren’t happy. This film by Richard Pendry nvestigates how a frontline journalist balances risk and reward.
Second year students produced their first television news bulletin on Wednesday. They were required to produced 15 minutes of international, national and local news on the day, and broadcast it live at 5pm.

I think it's an impressive performance from the team, with four packages produced on the day. You can watch the full bulletin here.
