Paging Patterico: Media Bistro Has Your Next Meal Ready
Having just devoured Glenn Greenwald and other lesser luminaries (if that’s possible) last night, I can’t help but thinking that Patterico will look forward to feasting on this from Media Bistro:
LA Times Praises Baghdad Bureau
The Los Angeles Times is pretty pleased about their Baghdad bureau. From a memo to the troops:
I want to take this opportunity to thank BORZOU DARAGAHI, SOLOMON MOORE and LOUISE ROUG for their outstanding work in our Baghdad bureau. We had a truly remarkable year in 2006 with a wonderful mix of news, analysis, investigative stories and features. We were out front on death squads and the fact that the country had descended into civil war. We had a detailed reconstruction of neighbor-on-neighbor killings in Balad, a heart-breaking account of a family coping with the loss of a child, and a ground-breaking piece by one of our Iraqi staffers, recounting his own dehumanization as he watched the shooting of a man in front of him and did nothing to help.
At least one instance of poor performance in reporting from Iraq comes immediately to mind.
Have at it, pal. Or, I should say, chow down.
Very true. I wonder if anyone from the LA Times has been to the Baghdad bureau?
