Journalists who lost lives honored

John Foley appreciates the fact that his son James, the US journalist beheaded in Syria by the Islamic State group last year, has been honored on a memorial to journalists who lost their lives while reporting the news. James Foley, 40, is listed on a towering wall of glass panels featuring 2,271 journalists who have died since 1837. Adjacent is a wall of corresponding photos, situated above the latest additions from 2014.
