On the Media: Becoming a freelance correspondent

Discussion of the practicalities of setting up as a freelance correspondant and the realities of conflict


With uprisings across the Middle East and North Africa setting a relentless pace in this year's news agenda, media outlets have frequently turned to freelances to cover events in countries where they are without staff bureaus and wire services.
The Frontline Club, in association with the BBC College of Journalism, will be bringing together a panel of freelances who will discuss the practicalities of life as a freelance foreign correspondent from setting up in a country to finding and pitching stories and dealing with the realities of conflict.
