Lecture - Kevin Sites
Please mark your calendar for Kevin Sites' lecture, Monday Feb. 16, 2009, 7 p.m. at the Young Auditorium.
Kevin Sites, a pioneer of solo journalism, was labeled by Times Magazine as " the web's best war correspondent." In November 2004, as an NBC News correspondent, he filmed and reported on one of the defining moments of the Iraqi war when he videotaped a U.S. Marine shooting a wounded Iraqi insurgent in a Fallujah mosque. Sites was honored with the Payne Award for ethics in journalism for his courage of the event. As Yahoo!'s first news correspondent, he spent an entire year covering every major global conflict for the award-winning documentary " Kevin Sites in the Hot Zone." His web site won a 2007 Webby for the Best News/Documentary/Public Affairs site for its coverage of the Israeli-Hezbollah War.
