| An American (Reporter) in France | ||||
There's no sign of life coming from her laptop. No radio. No television. No landline. There's a cell phone but it only receives incoming calls. KJZZ reporter Rene Gutel found herself in the most precarious of circumstances, especially for a reporter making her first attempt at life as a foreign correspondent in France. It gets better. This manqué de communication occurred while she was on the small island of Frioul, a few miles off the coast of Marseille. The last ferry is pulling off the docks and story deadlines are on the horizon. What's a woman to do? Catch the rest of the story in the September 2008 issue of Wavelength, your member magazine. |
