When a journalist reaches the scene of an incident, there may be blood on the ground. Someone may have died, while others may be injured. Somewhere, a rape survivor may be crying, or relatives may be searching for the bodies of their loved ones. Elsewhere, two groups may be clashing, a building may have caught fire, or an explosion may have taken place. Journalists witness these first-hand, gather information, take photographs and send reports to their respective media organisations, where they become news.
