WorldNewsDay: A day to let newsmakers say how journalism changed their lives JournalismMatters

Today, we celebrate the third annual World News Day. Across six continents, more than 150 newsrooms are marking the day.

Since the industry's earliest days, most of us have been satisfied as reporters, photographers and editors to be in the background. We were trained from day one that journalists are not the story. But in recent years, powerful forces have pushed our profession into the headlines. Camera operators, reporters and photographers may choose to go into dangerous situations, even riots, to tell their communities what is going on, but it is only in the last years that wearing the"press" identifier turns the journalist into a target.

The United States' top infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci, who talks often about the importance of following facts and scientific evidence, will join us.
