Being a TV reporter takes sacrifice. On the surface it seems like a glamorous job but those of us who have worked in the industry know it is just the opposite. There is, however, no other job like it in the world. I took duties at Al-Jazeera in February, one month later i was leading one of the channel's teams in Libya, covering the war and the revolution, i had to make sure i am in every location the rebels capture, therefore i was there the first to report.With Al Jazeera i covered the revolution in Libya from the start, then the NATO strikes and the battles fought between the rebels and Gaddafi's brigades.I had to do live DTLs from the war front, compile packages, interview prominent figures both on air on pre recorded.After Libya i returned to my base in Lebanon, where i had to cover Lebanese politics, and tension related to the Syrian uprising on the Syrian Lebanese borders.I was commissioned to cover Famine and drought in Somalia and Kenya, there i compiled several packages and did live DTLs using B-GAN, and the same as in Libya i had to travel to war zones and areas designated as Hostile.
