Alan Johnston follow-up: relief, freedom, danger and journalism

"A haircut and a nice cup of tea."

Two interesting BBC pieces:

One on the growing dangers of the journalism profession.

The other on Alan Johnston on the first day after his release, with comments on his captivity and his freedom.

With love and appreciation for the several journalist members of my family, and a special salute to my dad, Bern Redmont, senior among them.

I'm delighted about Johnston, of course, but I loved reading about your Dad and his book! Very cool, and very impressive.
