Citizen journalists, another death

Another citizen journalist killed, Baraa Al-Bushi, originally from Hama city, he defected three months ago and was martyred today in Tal city due to heavy regime shelling, Baraa was covering the situation there.
I know he’s just a new face

to you, another name, another martyr, but media workers are two types in Syria, those who get phone calls from people on the ground to get their news, and those who actually go to the areas and cover the situation live, risking it all.
Baraa and many others, were willing to die to get the picture right, were willing to die to let us all know, they died for this, I find this, well, I don’t know, I know it’s such a big decision to make, to die while covering the news. May you rest in peace, dear martyr.
