A person I would like to talk about is a reporter. His name is Ahmed Fakhouri. I know him by watching the news on a resistance news channel called Syria TV. The first time I saw him was about 12 years ago when the revolution started in my country. Back then, a lot of reporters took the side of the regime. He was one of the few reporters who was trying to expose the regime's torture, behaviors, and the bad things they have done to the people. I think this is one of the main reasons why I really admire him and want to meet him one day. Additionally, he has shown a lot of empathy toward his own people. I think he has a very nice tone. It's like a base tone that you usually don't hear much. It's a unique one. It would be really enjoyable for me to meet him in person and discuss with him how he managed to escape the government's bad behaviors. I think that in the future, I'd like to be more like him. I have an interest in reporting news in general. I think he has shown massive courage toward the government and the regime. I would like to be like him one day.
