Since the telegraph allowed for the invention of the war correspondent in the Crimean War, the position has been as controversial as it has been important. Governments try to use them for propaganda or to censor them and recently they have become targets. Michael Sweeney talks about his new book, "From the Front: The Story of War through Correspondents" which looks at the history of the coverage of war.
