Service to commemorate journalists killed covering war

A service to commemorate media workers who have died on the frontline during the past year is being held at St Bride's church on the evening of 9 November.

The event, entitled "The price of freedom", will honour the memory of those journalists, photographers and media support workers who have been killed while covering conflicts.

It will be attended by senior media figures as well as the relatives of those who have died. Mark Austin, ITN's anchorman (and Sunday Mirror columnist) will be deliver the main address.

"It is essential that we speak up for liberty and free expression, and that we honour and remember those who have died across the world in bearing the torch of freedom," says the St Bride's rector, David Meara.

The service will be followed by a reception at the Press House Wine Bar.
