Timor-Leste/THE HIGH COST OF BEING A TRUTH-SEEKING JOURNALIST IN THE EMERGING NATION OF EAST TIMOR

November 2011/Breakingthenews http://breakingthenews.com.au

Filmed over four years in Australia's most misunderstood neighbour East Timor, Breaking the News explores the high cost of being a truth-seeking journalist in an emerging nation.

Eleven years since the East Timorese successfully voted for independence from Indonesia, Breaking the News gets behind the scenes of news and current affairs reportage to challenge those who think a free press automatically comes with independence. What happens to the local journalists when the foreign reporters return safely home after covering each crisis, their stories in the can? Jose Belo and Rosa Garcia are two local journalists enmeshed in the political turmoil of their country, who regularly put themselves and their families at risk by reporting ongoing corruption and injustice.
