Journalists get attacked quite a lot in Uganda when covering mostly the frequent protests by opposition politicians. I have seen [in the recent past] footage of this nature on local TV. I am sure getting it wouldn’t be a problem.

Hi Kevin;
You might try to contact the Committee to Protect Journalists, which is based in New York. They may be able to help, and probably put you in touch with people who have the footage you are looking for. Their website is;
www.cpj.org
While we are luckier than most here in the U.S. violence against journalists seems to be on the rise everywhere, so good luck with this project.
