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 Thu Oct 30, 2008 12:35 PM PDTJJ,
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
by farrad02 on Thu Oct 30, 2008 08:47 AM PDTI 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!
Just a Thought
