First off, I would just like to say that I would never be a reporter to begin with, just because I would not want to have to deal with any war whatsoever. However, if I had to be a reporter I think it would be quite an eye opening experience and I would most definitely be scared most of the time. Having to report on these men and the risks and sacrifices they are willing to do for their country would be interesting and dangerous to report. Being down in the trenches and right up with the action would give me a greater perspective as to what to write about. Many of the reporters are not actually down near the action and up and personal with the soldiers from what I understand of it. They are near safety and can get out of harms way whenever they see fit. Therefore, if I was down in the trenches with the other soldiers, I think it would be quite a challenging and interesting experience that I would not forget ever. Therefore, I would be able to write a very good article regarding what exactly I see and how I truly feel, which would be mostly scared.
I do admire those that go and fight for our country, and therefore would find it a challenge to actually try and interpret what the soldiers are going through and how exactly they themselves feel about fighting. I would hate to write on the topic of them fighting for the wrong reasons and have them mad at me for trying to interpret what exactly their means and reasons for fighting. I would try to get the reading audience to feel as if they were actually in the battlefield and were right up with the soldiers fighting. Therefore, I think it would be difficult to try and get the readers to feel exactly what the soldiers are feeling. But, I would try my hardest to get that feeling across.
