Journalists Train For Hostile Conflict In U.S. And Abroad

Reporters can now get training on how to avoid dangerous situations, and what to do if they are in one. And it’s not only foreign assignments that can be hazardous; protests and political gatherings in the U.S. have turned violent. Armando Trull of WAMU has the story.

This story includes audio from UPI Radio’s 1994 Year in Review.
