Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University disinvited duCille from appearing at a workshop because he'd returned three weeks earlier from covering the Ebola outbreak in Liberia.〔 DuCille said at the time, “It’s a disappointment to me. I’m pissed off and embarrassed and completely weirded out that a journalism institution that should be seeking out facts and details is basically pandering to hysteria.”〔 Du Cille died December 11, 2014, from an apparent heart attack at the age of 58 while on assignment in Liberia. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Michel duCille」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
