This is the first time I've heard a reporter to be killed in Afghanistan. How many are out there?

If you read all of the BBC link, it says, " Mr Hamer is the second foreign journalist to be killed in Afghanistan in recent weeks.

Michelle Lang, 34, from Canada's Calgary Herald, died along with four Canadian soldiers in a roadside bomb attack in December. "
