His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

I said, ‘Yes I think that’s a good idea.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In therapy Turner was finally able to talk about not just the October firestorm, but his 23 years of being a witness to some of the most extreme and traumatic events human beings experience. It all came tumbling out of him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not surprisingly, Turner was diagnosed with PTSD. But he doesn’t think of it as a disorder, which implies a pre-existing condition. He calls it an injury.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I look at it the same way as if I were to break my ankle on a call,” he says. “I would go to an orthopedic surgeon, right, and get that fixed?

I said, ‘I’m sorry did I already tell you this?’ He goes, ‘No, I’m telling you what I experience.’ It was almost identical.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group is made up primarily of people who have been doing this work for decades. They share bad calls, but also talk about their fears, their feelings and their families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Firefighter Boek says he called up Turner one day because he felt like he was letting down his kids. He was used to being able to handle anything — he kind of felt like Superman. Now he found himself crying in the kitchen for no apparent reason.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t want my kids to think that I’m hurt or broken, even though maybe I am a little hurt and broken,” Boek says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11698400\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/IMG_3366-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Firefighter Lucas Boek says the Redwood Valley Fire hit himself and his community really hard.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11698400\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Firefighter Lucas Boek says the Redwood Valley Fire hit himself and his community really hard. \u003ccite>(Sukey Lewis/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But Turner says he has come to see that they’ve been actually letting down their families for years — by pretending that they’re not affected by this work. They can actually help their own kids, he says, and other young people who are just starting out as emergency responders by modeling emotional openness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there’s one positive that I can see from that horrible incident, it’s that the shell that was starting to crack — the attitude and really the lack of honesty about emotions in emergency services — it went from having some cracks in it to shattering for a lot of us,” Turner says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A New Kind of Emergency Responder\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A few months ago, Turned stepped down as assistant fire chief in Redwood Valley.

He wants them to go into this work with their eyes wide open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, Turner’s class did a review of Hurricane Katrina. They spent three days watching footage of the disaster and discussing the health care crisis that occurred in the hurricane’s aftermath.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s pretty heavy for some high school kids to watch that,” Turner says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, a counselor for the school came into the classroom and did a presentation on techniques to deal with stress and emotions. Turner said when things would get intense, they would take a break and all practice breathing exercises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11698407\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RanchFire_AW_105-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A firefighter holds a hand tool ready to build containment around the Ranch Fire. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11698407\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A firefighter holds a hand tool ready to build containment around the Ranch Fire. \u003ccite>(Anne Wernikoff/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Turner hopes by sharing his own experiences and teaching these young people the tools to cope with those experiences, he can better equip them to manage their own buckets of rocks, now and in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t have to end with the firefighter walking in and dropping their gear on the floor and saying you know, ‘Bleep this, I’m done,'” he says. “And I think that’s really what we want to prevent.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED reporter Marisa Lagos contributed to this report. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",
