How do war journalist manage to be in the middle of a conflict without being killed?

1.08K viewsOther

I watched Civil War yesterday and even though I generally knew what their job is I was surprised that they were actually in the very middle of the fighting, tagging right behind the soldiers and taking pictures. Why does either side of the conflict just lets them be, especially the side that might be ‘in the wrong’, knowing that they would report on their atrocities?

Journalists are civilians and are therefore (mostly) protected. All parties are supposed to avoid civilian casualties, but its dangerous to be a civilian in a war zone so they often gets killed anyway.
