Journalism has long been known for risking lives in life-threatening environments to deliver unfabricated news. Speaking of a heart-throbbing profession, Sarah Jones has taken the journalism profession by storm. Jones entered the industry as a strong voice, breaking barriers and showing true journalism with her fearless approach and unique perspective on local, national, and international news stories.

Sarah Jones is an Emmy Award-winning journalist with a career that includes some of the world's leading news organizations, including ABC News, CNN, BBC World Service, Al Jazeera America, NBC in the Midwest, and TRT World in Istanbul. Her experience in journalism involves uncovering the truth and her dedication to providing a platform for underrepresented voices. Her work has won many awards, including the Best Journalist in Social Media Award at the sixth Shorty Awards held at the New York Times Center in 2014.

Beyond her astonishing achievements, Jones is also a celebrated author. Her book, "A Kids Book About War," is a poignant and insightful exploration of war, well-curated for a young audience of five years and older. The book covers complex themes with audience-appropriate content, making it a valuable resource for adults who want to discuss this challenging subject with children. Jones offers a non-threatening approach to understanding conflict, its origins, and its consequences through this work.

Her passion for storytelling and leaving no stone unturned to help make a more informed public ledto the launch of an independent platform, "Sarah Jones Reports." This initiative allowed her to maintain editorial command and continue her mission of bringing marginalized stories to the surface. In addition to her reporting, Jones hosts a children's podcast titled "Sarah Jones Breaks It Down," where she simplifies puzzling topics for her young audience of at least nine years of age.

One of her programs that drew overnight popularity through the media was "Seen and Heard." This initiative focuseson highlighting forgotten and overlooked stories, providing a platform for voices that are often ignored by mainstream media. Through "Seen and Heard," Jones aims to ensure that these stories receive the attention they deserve, challenging the traditional narratives that dominate the news cycle.

Jones aims to ensure that the stories and reporters are as diverse as her programs' audience, which encompasses socioeconomic, geographic, gender, disability, and ethnicity. Jones' efforts are clear in her work and the platforms she has created, which strive to provide balanced and comprehensive coverage of pressing issues.

Another example of her journalistic integrity is Remembering Fallen Journalism, the annual international moment of silence on World Press Freedom Day. This is an initiative Sarah Jones launched in 2014 in collaboration with The United Nations Plus Social Good, the Committee to Protect Journalists, The Frontline Club, The National Press Club, Muck Rack, the International Association of Press Clubs, the James W. Foley Legacy Foundation, the Knight Foundation, and Reddit. Theevent honors journalists who have lost their lives in the line of duty and reached nearly nine million people in its inaugural year.

As she continues to push the boundaries to make news more inclusive and bring underreported news to light, Sarah Jones is undoubtedly a journalist whose work will continue to inspire change in the media world.
