actually I guess you could say now journalism is more a balance between doing journalism and generating income streams

She's a famous, glamorous war correspondent. She reported from the Balkans for Vanity Fair, won awards, the whole lot.

Anyway, check out Sara Firth's Twitter profile portrait and you can see that's what she's aiming for.

I took Jim to a Janine di Giovanni lecture in the Hay Festival in 2016. He found it really disturbing.
