Journalists killed on the job honored

78 members of the journalism community lost their lives while on assignment in 2004, making it the third bloodiest year in history, going all the way back to 1812. According to the Freedom Forum, the names of the 78 will be added to 1606 journalists already commemorated at Freedom Park and the Freedom Forum Journalists Memorial. A ceremony will be held 5/3/05, and will be hosted by CNN's Judy Woodruff. 1994 was the worst year, with 94 fatalities, followed by 1991, with 93. Freedom Forum noted that 25 of the 2004 casualties were in Iraq, bringing to total number in that country up to 45 since Operation Desert Storm began. That compares to 69 killed during WWII and 63 in a 20-year period of conflict in Vietnam and Cambodia.
