My Take

Brent Renaud is a name I refuse to let fade. Working alongside his brother Craig on hard-hitting documentaries for HBO and Vice, he earned a Peabody and a Nieman Fellowship, recognition rooted in substance, not celebrity. He chose to stand where truth is most dangerous, and in 2022 he was killed while reporting in Irpin, Ukraine. I cannot speak lightly of that courage. Journalists like Renaud carry the world's pain so the rest of us can see it, and they pay an unimaginable price. My take is simple: this is the bravest kind of work there is, and he deserves our lasting gratitude.
