Tragic reports are appearing about photojournalists Tim Hetherington & Chris Hondros in Libya. From Vanity Fair: Tim Hetherington (right) on the set of “Restrepo” with Sebastian Junger vanityfair.com We are monitoring the situation but there are unconfirmed reports now on Twitter and Facebook that Vanity Fair contributing photographer Tim Hetherington, on a personal project in Libya, has been injured or killed in Misrata, Libya, along with three colleagues. We will update as we know more. British-born Hetherington, 41, has covered conflict extensively over the last decade, winning the coveted World Press Photo Award in 2007 for his coverage of American soldiers in Afghanistan for the magazine. That work also served as the basis of the Oscar-nominated documentary Restrepo, which he directed with Vanity Fair contributor Sebastian Junger. Hetherington, a sometime filmmaker, is also the author of the recently released book, Infidel. UPDATE: AP & AFP have confirmed that war photographers Tim Hetherington & Chris Hondros were killed in Libya. Tragic indeed. twitter.com!/jakenaughton/status/60749027100205056
