Posted by Carolyn Lo on March 20, 2008 at 3:18 PM
In case you've missed it, Reuters has created a documentary website, "Bearing Witness," to commemorate the War in Iraq. It is an excellent example of merging online journalism and multimedia to engage the viewer.

The introduction states the website's mission is: "bearing witness that the story of Iraq is not lost." The website is a comprehensive documentation of the five years of the war, including video footage, images, interviews with journalists who have covered the conflict, a visual timeline of the War, and more. It also supplies viewers maps and dangers of reporting in such a dangerous country, including a map of journalist fatalities.
