Breaking News, Breaking Down is inherently gripping
Tricia Olszewski, Washington City Paper

As a journalist Mike Walter was in the right place at the right time. As a person, it was the wrong place to be. On September 11, 2001 what he witnessed was to leave him emotionally scarred.
Amanda Meade, The Australian

Breaking News, Breaking Down is a documentary that shows journalists as they really are.
James Rainey, Los Angeles Times

Journalists who peer into the abyss of war, crime and natural disasters as part of their jobs can end up as emotionally scarred as the victims they never imagined joining.
J. Ross Baughman, The Washington Times

Extraordinarily frank and honest. With this documentary Mike has taken us all a step closer to a greater understanding.
Lisa Millar, Senior Correspondent at Australian Broadcasting Corp

I found “Breaking News, Breaking Down” eye opening.
Shirin Ghareeb, Washington, DC International Film Festival

Breaking News, Breaking Down is a compelling study of the toll that telling the story can take on the storyteller using the case of Hurricane Katrina when some journalists found themselves both victim and reporter.
Christina Lamb, The Sunday Times of London, Named 2007 Foreign Correspondent of the Year in the British Press Awards
