Miguel Marquez Beaten In Bahrain: ABC News Correspondent Attacked During Protests In Pearl Square

Another media professional attacked in the midst of the violence and chaos in Bahrain.  The impact of the unrest is having a significant impact on the safety of our fellow journalist and reporters. With the recent rape and now this brutal attack, one has to ask how many more of our peers will be harmed in the midst of delivering their communities and public teh news.  The news so many of us can easily and unintentionally yake for granted. Being a journalist is by far an extremely dangerous, sometimes depressing, sometimes triumphant and gratifying exerience.  It is very unfortunate that our peers have been subjected to the horrific experiences they have sustained in the nameof their coverage on a world changing event. MACTV extends our deepest condolences and wish a smooth recovery for our resilient soldiers of information and media.
