Case Study: Vanguard

This Death Train segment is one of my favorite pieces of journalism from Current TV’s ‘Vanguard’ series. A backpack journalist recorded the dangers that Guatemalan workers face as they attempt to migrate to America. The piece was incredibly moving and I think really serves as a testament to Current’s form of mass sourced citizen journalism. Last night, I noticed that Vanguard has recently been added to Hulu providing another outlet for people to stumble upon this great series.
