  1. Shirley Anderson Says:

    I loved the conversation with the journalists from Nepal and Egypt. Especially, the gentleman from Egypt who was so well informed and educated. I wish we could listen to his reports in this country. I am a world affairs addict and am disgusted that the US hardly covers foreign news any more. I miss Bill Moyers, NOW, and Foreign Exchange. I request Channel 5 carry Democracy Now with Amy Goodman. Thank you.
