Bloom Daughters Remember Their Dad

Nicole, Christine and Eva Bloom, daughters to the late David Bloom who died in 2003 while on assignment in Iraq for NBC, once again presented the Bloom Award at this year’s Radio & TV Correspondent’s dinner.

Awards went to BBC World Affairs Correspondent Paul Wood and CBS News’ Clarissa Ward for reporting from Syria on the country’s civil war.

“Their reports embody all that the David Bloom Award is about,” one of the Bloom daughters said. “Not only do these reporters exemplify courage, they continue to apply pressure on policy makers and the international community to stop the bloodshed in Syria.”

“It’s a tremendous honor to win this award and I am humbled to share it with Paul Wood, whose reporting from Syria has been fiercely brave and compelling,” Ward told FBDC.
