The journalist who broke the news of the German invasion of Poland, which triggered the second World War, has died at the grand old age of 105. www.BBC.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-38573643To break the story would have been massive at the time, but for it to have been a woman was an even bigger achievement. I could imagine her being heavily patronised at the time for her scoop. 105 is a great age and it sounds as though she led a varied life. RIP

She must have been a strong lady as I'm sure there weren't many female journalists in those days.
RIP
