1. I posted a thread about Clarissa last night,

she is one brave, tough journalist, who goes where the fighting is.

5. Thank you.

Some here hate her, though I’ve no idea why.

9. Some people gotta hate

Others who aren't in lockstep with them, such as reporters who don't report the way they approve of.

14. Nailed it.

I think she does a fantastic job.

8. Agree

She has been doing a great job reporting and her ability to peak the language fluently has been just one reason.

6. Thank god they finally got a helmet and body armor on her

I’ve seen her for days in the thick of the refugee situation. I wasn’t sure who it was but I recognized the scarf. My wife and I have been discussing her being so unprotected. Great reporting. I guess now that she really out in the field she put something on.

She speaks the language obviously. Good for her.

I can’t imagine having to move the grandparents in a situation like this.

7. She is very brave, always gets to the front lines of dangerous places. She is awesomeness!

10. She has very tough job,

trying to explain to Anderson Cooper back in Lviv what's going on.

11. She is only reason I check in to watch CNN, I watch BBC news, many live reports from inside Ukraine

12. She is great.

I just read her bio. Found this interesting -

Ward is fluent in French and Italian, conversational in Russian, Arabic and Spanish and knows basic Mandarin Chinese

Magical language skills.

Thanks for posting.

13. I'm feeling quite guilty at age 81 sitting in my lovely apartment with food in the fridge watching

these older Ukranians just trying to get through their day, not knowing where they will end up. Heartbreaking.

15. It is heartbreaking.

Words just can’t describe it.

The reporters deal with danger, for sure, but I can’t imagine the toll of witnessing all that human suffering.
