The Journalist Toll of Covering the Revolution in Egypt

76 journalists imprisoned
52 journalists physically attacked and injured
1 brutally beaten and gang raped (Lara Logan, CBS Television)
1 killed (Ahmad Mohamed Mahmoud of the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ta’awun)

Personal addendum: I find it objectionable, irresponsible and revolting that TV execs allow women to cover war zones. You are not convincing me that this is necessary to produce good reporting. I believe the motives are political correctness and, above everything else, the hope for better ratings.
