libertangoBack when I was a student at Pomona College, I used to do news reports for KSPC-FM, 88.7, the student radio station. One of the damned few real college radio stations left, since so many have gone over to NPR.
My boss back then, a friend and one of the smartest people I've ever met, was Gordon Robison. He went on to do things like write Lonely Planet's Arab Gulf States book (including photography, at which he's very good), and broadcast and produce for ABC Radio and CNN from places like Cairo, and Amman, and similar points in the region.
I'm pleased to say I just found his new blog/website -- Mideast Analysis.com
Mind you, he's sold his soul to the devil, as he's about to go off to be Fox News' bureau chief in Baghdad for seven weeks.
Still... If anyone could make Fox a bit more reality-based, it's Gordon.
