In a lecture at Northwestern University about covering the war in Iraq, NPR correspondent
Anne Garrels described an "unlikely partnership" in Baghdad: Fox News offered to share generator power with NPR, which was only getting two hours of electricity a day. NPR rejected the offer at first, then relented. Garrels also described her wartime experiences, including watching people get killed. She admitted, "The reaction comes later--suddenly you don't handle things the same way... In my case, I started drinking too much. I came home, and I couldn't deal with it."
