Tim Hetherington, VICE contributor, died yesterday in the Lybian city of Misrata.
Quote:
Tim was a photo journalist of the highest caliber and winner of the World Press Photo of the Year in 2007. He was also nominated for an Oscar earlier this year for his work as co-director of Restrepo, a documentary that we think perfectly captures the visceral experience of being a soldier in one of the most dangerous places in Afghanistan, the Korengal Valley.
