Welcome and thank you, this is SE and today's discussion point is going to be about a Journalist
and her writings. I am going to discuss very briefly for Mass Media students the writings
of Oriania Fallaci, she was very well known journalist from Italy. She was born in a year
1929 and she passed away in 2006. What is very important about her writings from a journalistic
stand point is that she was able to interview many famous personalities of her time.
Dr. Henry Kissinger, Mrs. Indra Gandhi, Zulifiqar Ali Bhutto, and many more. What is more important
is that those collections of interviews were conducted face to face with those leaders.
Which gives us the opportunity to re visit history and to see, what, those leaders were
thinking at that time and how much has changed in our world, today from those years. One
of the other things to remember in mass media is, that although, we live in the age of technology,
the news are reported, in a very timely fashion and travel in a super highways of speed with
technology, we can never ignore, the importance of print media. So, I would request, and recommend
to journalism students and to mass media students, for once, to read, about Oriania Fallaci.
Thank you and good bye.
