Following up
Yasser Salihee:
On the story about the Iraqi Knight-Ridder correspondent killed in Baghdad, Knight Ridder's Hannah Allam writes in Editor & Publisher magazine about the loss of Yasser Salihee:
...Yasser had hoped to travel to London soon on a journalism fellowship. He showed me a copy of the essay he'd written for the application. He described the dangers that journalists in Iraq face, writing that the obstacles were enough to make anyone want to quit. Then he added: "But for me, I decided to carry on as a doctor and a foreign reporter at the same time because I found it very important to tell the people outside about what's really going on." " Deep Throat: And, on the Deep Throat story, Bob Woodward has rushed out a book, The Secret Man, which will be in bookstores in a few days. Some first looks are coming out, though, including this story in the Washington Post identifying the Arlington parking garage where the meetings occurred. Another of Watergate's long mysteries solved. (USA Today obtained an early copy of the book and writes about it here.) There are also rumors that Robert Redford has been seen with Woodward in last few days, does that mean there's another movie in the works? Redford would make a great Mark Felt. posted by liz at 9:47 AM
