Kevin Sites is an American author and freelance journalist. He has spent nearly a decade covering global wars and disasters for ABC, NBC, CNN, and Yahoo! News. Dubbed by the trade press as the "granddaddy" of backpack journalists, Sites helped blaze the trail for intrepid reporters who work alone, carrying only a backpack of portable digital technology to shoot, write, edit, and transmit multimedia reports from the world's most dangerous places. His first book, In the Hot Zone: One Man, One Year, Twenty Wars (Harper Perennial-October 2007), shares his effort to put a human face on global conflict by reporting from every major war zone in one year.

  • Kevin Sites är en rutinerad och erfaren krigskorrespondent som har besökt de flesta krigshärdar. Sites jobbade tidigare för NBC News, men tröttnade på att nyhetsinslagen oftast skulle ha en amerikansk koppling. Efter att ha bevittnat och dessutom ha spelat in en amerikansk marinkårssoldats avrättning av en irakisk motståndsman vid en attack mot en moské, och nyheten censurerades av NBC, så valde Sites att lägga ut filmklippet på Youtube.
