All Hail Deb Amos!
Saturday, April 09, 2011
Deb Amos is what's known in the biz as an experienced "Middle East Hand." A correspondent for NPR, she's traveled all over the region (she's here right now), knows the history and watched the stories develop over decades, often under fire. She's also one of my best friends. She's the one who told me the time was ripe for "On the Media" to go to Egypt. So we did. Because she is always right. Thank you, Deb.

Freedom of the Press in Post-Mubarak Egypt
Friday, April 08, 2011
The Egyptian revolution has transformed more than just the government. For decades, freedom of the press was out of reach for most of the Egyptian media, but the revolution has changed all that — to an extent. Some topics such as the military are still left unreported by most traditional outlets. Blogs like "Tahrir Diaries," a website run by 25-year-old writer and activist Mona Seif, are one of the few sources reporting on military trials and violations.

Towel Art
Thursday, April 07, 2011
Ok. This weirdly off topic, but I gotta mention it. I leave my room at the Rameses Hilton every morning, and when I return in the evening, the nice young men who tidy the room leave a surprise on my bed: Towel Sculptures! The first night it was a swan giving a ride to a small stuffed camel. The second night, I was initially stunned by what appeared to be a small child wrapped in gauze, before I switched on the light and beheld a an impressive towel-crocodile holding the aforementioned camel in its gaping mouth. Today it's a small man in a robe (thank god it's small - I don't think my heart could take any more life-size renderings) wearing MY hat. Also he 's sleeping on MY side of the bed. What nerve!

In Between

Radiohead's Newspaper
Wednesday, March 30, 2011
When Radiohead released the digital version of their eighth album, "The King of Limbs," last month, they dubbed it "the world's first newspaper album." What exactly that meant was the subject of much debate. But the band may have cleared up some of the mystery this week, with the release of "The Universal Sigh," a 12-page print publication distributed by real-life paperboys (and girls) at various points around the globe. We discuss the newspaper - with a look at the state of the print industry - with On the Media host Brooke Gladstone.
