Summary |
"This week's program is introduced by Tony Fitzgerald, a former judge. Michael Ware's fearless reporting from the world's deadliest war zones has made him a star on US television. He's a regular on the big American talk shows, but his jaw dropping exploits are little known at home. Working in Afghanistan and Iraq for Time Magazine and then CNN, Michael Ware willingly went where no other reporter could or would. Seemingly 'addicted to danger', he was kidnapped three times and was only seconds away from being executed in the street by Al Qaeda. Now he's back home in Brisbane, to reunite with his young son, and finally confront his personal demons" -- ABC website |
