In 1974, Fenton set off for Southeast Asia where he worked as a freelance reporter covering stories for The Nation and The New Statesman on pivotal world events, including the fall of Saigon and the rise of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Of his decision to move abroad, Fenton remarked, “I wanted very much to see a communist victory. I wanted to see a war and the fall of a city because . . . because I wanted to see what such things were like. I had once seen a man dying, from natural causes, and my first reaction as I realized what was happening was to be glad that I was there. This is what happens, I thought, so watch it carefully, don’t miss a detail.”
