Tips for journalists from Reuters AlertNet

March 1st 2007 21:06
I found this service from Reuters very helpful if you are trying to cover humanitarian news around the world.
My suggestion is that even bloggers can make good use for it, not only journalists.

If you want to sign up, visit their website here.

here is what this week's email sent me:

"Thailand's south faces religious war: Southern Thailand is faced with an increasingly bloody insurgency that some analysts say is zooming towards war, pitting Buddhists against Muslims in a region where different religions have co-existed peacefully in neighbouring villages for decades. Despite government overtures towards Muslim separatists, there are fears sectarian violence could flare out of control. The International Herald Tribune says new rebel tactics are pitting local Buddhists against Muslims by hacking Buddhist monks to death, as well as killing Muslims who cooperate with the government."

and also about rising religious tension in China's western border province. it has seen rise in Islamic fundamentalist movement.
