Mehdi Jami

Radio Zamaneh chief resigns

I got a brief email today from Mehdi Jami that he has resigned as the director of Radio Zamaneh. I still don't know exactly what happened. But this is sad news. I have great love and respect for Jami as a person and journalist. His fairness, open-mindedness, and understanding of modern journalism made Radio Zamaneh a magnate for some of our best and brightest writers, young and old. It's difficult to see how the station will survive without him since the environment he created allowed for a lot of freedom and creativity and that's rarely appreciated among Iranian journalists.

Obituary Column?

by Nader Vanaki on

JJ,

For a journalist your above obituary for the man is ......valah chi begam?

At least write one paragraph about who this guy is and what he does?

Sad news indeed; I wish him well

I also wonder what happened! It may be that he has found a better opportunity elsewhere which is not hard to imagine considering his quality as a journalist! In any case, I want to wish Mehdi Jami the very best, whereever he ends up!

Now that the empire is scaling back, perhaps the Dutch government is doing the same thing?
