    How does a journalist decide what are the relevant aspects of a story, what questions to ask, and what elements to emphasize? And how do you deal with these questions when covering events in another language in a foreign country? This video examines award-winning broadcast journalist Amy Goodman, of New York's WBAI-FM radio, at work covering the February 1994 emergence of Zapatista rebels in the Mexican state of Chiapas.

    Directed by Victoria Schultz
