55. It's common sense, friend.
Yes, it is noble of her to report from one of the hardest hit areas. With that said, that doesn't change the fact that her low profile only gives her a limited amount of access in the stories she covers. Sometimes she does fine working within those limitations, other times not. Someone with a higher profile, for instance, might do a little follow up on these reports and seek some comment from the United Nations on this matter. After all, they're the ones who drew up the Red Zones and are also the ones enforcing those restrictions so you'd THINK you'd want to find out what they have to say on the matter. If you'll notice, she didn't do that, probably because few people know who she is. Frankly, I think even she would acknowledge the limits placed on her by her lower profile, but hey, if you need to pretend otherwise, who am I to intrude on your version of reality.
