Paul Watson on Fresh Air

In case you missed it today, Fresh Air's Terri Goss interviewed Canadian photojournalist Paul Watson, whose photo of the dead American soldier being dragged through the streets of Somolia won the '94 Pulitzer for Spot News.

He's also covered Rwanda, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq, and according to Watson, he's now suffering from chronic PTS. Recently he was named head of the L.A. Times bureau in Indonesia.

In the interview he speaks pretty frankly about the photo and how it's impacted his life and the lives of his family, and it's impact on politics.

Anyway, interview is worth a listen.
