Excellent tribute — one of the last of that generation of outstanding old-school frontline journalists who reported (as you do, Vanessa) what they actually saw and experienced.
He will be hugely missed, but leaves an extraordinary legacy on which we can all continue to draw.
And your piece inter alia offers further proof — were it needed — that what we're seeing everywhere right now is the same old, same old just very slightly re-spun...
It did my heart good to read this tribute to John, that added much to what I already knew. It only takes one John Pilger or Julian Assange to show that it's possible to maintain this level of integrity. And yet the authors are three more.
A wonderfully written piece about an equally wonderful man, his outpourings of written work and film will be badly missed, thankfully his books remain on my bookshelves. He never faltered in supporting what he believed in.
I found one of his documentaries a year ago about propaganda in the media, a great watch, it was tucked away on V movies on YouTube, mostly dealing with have aliens landed and Claude Van Dam type films but I take a look because once in a while those kind of channels often have a hidden gem and I was able to watch this documentary once more.
Thank you for remembering the wonderful work of John for us all.

A wonderment to me. Both. It sings alone, beseeching liars to mend. I will in no way belittle what a journalist is now up against. Thanks gutsy stuff.
