Veronica Guerin’s black and gold Mont Blanc pen makes for a poignant exhibit at the Journalists Memorial in the Newseum museum of news in Washington.

It sits among the personal effects of many journalists from around the world killed while doing their jobs.

Laptops, passports, notebooks, even the remains of a booby-trapped car are among the symbols of lives lived and lost in the pursuit of delivering news.
