FOOTAGE COORDINATOR - Pentagon Reports Army Mascot 'Liberty' Killed in Iraq

This was one of the first things I helped with when I started at The Onion News Network back in December '08. I had to look through so many horrific videos and stills of the Iraq War to find all of these backgrounds.

After a while I became numb to it. I'm just thinking: "Too much color, not enough carnage." or "This shot would be great if they held the camera steady instead of running away from the sniper fire." or "It would be better if there was a dead body, and a Iraqi civilian crying." Then I take a long shower... and remember the only way I can deal with the awfulness of this situation (the war, not my job) is to make fun of it.

The next week I had to look through hours and hours of hardcore pornography.
