The job of the print journalist in this day of media saturation is doubly hard as two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times op-ed columnist Nicholas Kristof knows all too well. Kristof, whose writing has drawn international attention to humanitarian atrocities in places like Darfur and China, not only has to negotiate dangerous characters and life-threatening situations in order to accurately report events, but must also ensure his story will galvanize an increasingly jaded reader. Reporter follows Kristof on a trek through the ravaged villages of the Democratic Republic of Congo, a disaster zone where 5.4 million have died in the last decade as a result of unceasing warfare over territory, resources, and tribal hatred. Eric Daniel Metzgar's account of Kristof's mission results in a fascinating profile of a driven reporter and a poignant reflection on the state of humanitarianism. Shannon Abel.
