Baghdad Blogger -- Salam Pax on TV


Link Network is broadcasting "Baghdad Blogger" starring Salam Pax. This episode runs from 11:00-12:30 EST and will be rebroadcast from 5:00-6:30 tomorrow morning. It's fascinating -- a tour of Sadr City during last year's uprising, a feature on the Iraqi Symphony as a symbol of national unity, and much, much more. Definitely worth taping.

LINK is definitely a good alternative to the standard news channels. It broadcasts a lot of lefty/pacifica stuff, but there are real nuggets here and there. Salam Pax is one of them.

Here's the network's website. Salam Pax's page is here. Here's a Guardian story on him.
