Back to Iraq is a blog written by Christopher Allbritton, who wants to cover Northern Iraq as an independent journalist. He’s raising money to fund his endeavor. (Wired has a story.)
Here’s Allbritton’s introduction:
I’m Christopher Allbritton, former AP and New York Daily News reporter. This summer I went stumbling around Iraqi Kurdistan, the northern part of Iraq outside Saddam’s direct control, looking for stories. (Some might call it “looking for trouble.”) Well, now I want to go back in time for the war. So I’m asking your help in supporting independent journalism.
He’s going to have to hurry to get to Iraq “in time for the war.”
I think this guy also posted about this story from the BBC about the US bombing the uplinks of independent journalists to contain the flow of obective information.
Great work on your blog by the way. I enjoy reading.
take care.
