BBC journalist Clive Myrie has been hailed by viewers, journalists and senior politicians after giving a powerful explanation of the media's presence in Ukraine following the Russian invasion. Journalists have been reporting live from Kyiv as Vladimir Putin's forces continue to head towards the capital city.
Myrie, who is also the host of Mastermind on BBC, said that it was part of the job and that none of the reporters there had been forced to go to Ukraine. Many viewers have asked after the safety of journalists reporting from the war zone.
Speaking on BBC News to journalist Christian Fraser, Myrie said: "We all feel that we want to tell the story of this war and tell it accurately and fairly. And that is really important because there is so much... I was going to use the word crap but I might as well... there is so much crap out there... misinformation, propaganda, nonsense.
