For a journalist, speaking to people who\u2019ve been affected by personal tragedy is part of life. It\u2019s your job to get insight from someone who\u2019s been bereaved, shocked, injured or is hurting.
\n
\n\n\nA new book called Trauma Reporting - A journalist's guide to covering sensitive stories -\xa0 offers an invaluable perspective \u2013 from several of those who\u2019ve been at the other end of the microphone and camera in the midst of those awful times. How do they feel about how they were treated by reporters.\xa0
\n
\n\n\nThe book\u2019s been written by senior BBC broadcast news journalist \u2013 and BBC Academy trainer in trauma journalism - Jo Healey, who also spoke to journalists about their own experiences.
\n
\n\n\nIn this RadioMoments techniques special, Jo told me more about what she\u2019d found out.
\n
\nTrauma Reporting by Jo Healey is published by Routledge.
