BBC News

Highlights from my work with BBC World News programs.

A newspaper lies on a concrete sidewalk with a headline reading 'WORKING ON IT'. The newspaper appears partially crumpled with its pages curling at the corner. It features a mix of photographs and text, including an image of a person in the top section. Sunlight casts a shadow across part of the newspaper and the sidewalk, adding to the scene's contrast.
