Fatal Flights: When News Becomes a Tragic Reality The sudden loss of Eliana Moreno and George Marciniw, two aerial photojournalists who died in a helicopter crash while covering a story for NBC4, has sent shockwaves through the Los Angeles community.
The incident serves as a harsh reminder that journalists often put themselves in harm's way to bring us news. Just two hours after a deadly bus crash in the same area, the helicopter collided with an unknown object.
This raises questions about safety protocols and whether sufficient communication existed between the helicopter crew and ground control.
