What risks should journalists take to report stories? In this week\'s Feedback, Roger Bolton visits BBC journalists on a training course which aims to prepare them to report from dangerous conflict zones and hostile environments. Listeners have been pondering whether the risks are worth it in order to report the story to them. Roger brings the BBC\'s Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet together with senior BBC producer Stuart Hughes and Vaughan Smith, founder of the Frontline Club, to discuss the issues.\\nAnd, after weeks of speculation, Chris Evans was named as the new presenter of Top Gear last week. But some of his 10 million Radio 2 listeners think he\'s been talking about it far too much in the days since the announcement. Helen Thomas, the editor of The Chris Evans Breakfast Show, answers the listeners.\\nAlso this week: "History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon." That was apparently the view of Napoleon Bonaparte. But some Feedback listeners don\'t agree with the version of Napoleon\'s life which historian Andrew Roberts delivered in his series on Radio 4. Professor Roberts defends his portrayal of the French Emperor.
