#1 A war zone is a dangerous place. Wandering around in one is not conducive to longevity. Those who enter such a place to do honest work are very brave souls indeed. Those who have taken a brave stand and made enemies out of the 'wrong' sorts of people I also respect and the ones who have paid the ultimate price for doing so, i mourn.

Most of the rest of them not so much.

#2 A considerable reduction from the 139 killed in 2009. 40% smaller pool in dangerous places? Dangerous places less dangerous to journalists? Journalists learning safer behaviors for dangerous places?
