Reporting Aleppo

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

How graphic should our coverage of the war in Syria be? Should the media show all images of the conflict, no matter how gruesome? We discuss with journalists and people on the ground in Aleppo itself. We speak to women in the tech industry about the suggestion they should obscure their identities online in order to avoid unconscious bias from potential employers and investors. We reflect the huge conversation in India and Pakistan after the Indian military announced they had carried out "surgical strikes" in the disputed territory of Kashmir - although Pakistan denies they happened. And we follow the developing story of a commuter train crash in Hoboken, New Jersey.
