The March Digital Journalist is now online. This month features Anthony Suau’s feature on The Housing Meltdown. You’ve probably seen his World Press Photo winning image of the police detective clearing a house, but the rest of the series is definitely worth a look, it’s a very powerful take on what’s going on in towns across the country right now.
Of covering the story with detective Robert Kole, Suau says:
“I was on edge each time we approached a home over the next day and a half I rode with him – I always wondered what emotion we would find next. Between evictions he took me to streets on which every home was closed as a result of foreclosures. I worked the streets of crack houses and boarded up complexes as he stood closely by. “Don’t even think of coming here on your own,” he told me as we pulled away.”
