Title: The Foreign Correspondent
Discipline: Journalism, Geography, Business
 
The foreign correspondent provides eyewitness accounts, on-sight interviews and reports of the trends, events and ideas from locations around the world. This guide provides an interview with the Post’s Foreign Editor Keith Richburg and two articles written by experienced reporters that set the foundation for understanding the job of the foreign correspondent. Articles by Post foreign correspondents illustrate correspondents covering war, giving context and insight into another culture, and providing perspective and background on political actions in other countries.
