Today the pictures are telling the story, pictures we wouldn't have if people weren't willing to risk their lives to keep us informed. While the fall of Baghdad to U.S. forces is cause for celebration, we pause to remember the 11 journalists who lost their lives covering the war, as well as all the others, military and civilian, who died. This war was the deadliest in modern history for journalists, with the press corps death rate 16 times that of coalition forces. There can be no freedom without a free press.
