Hello Barry and fellow Proximities fans. Retired from a career of daily journalism in Canada and abroad, I manage a web site called Interview-Her.com. The aim is to get more women experts and activists on peace and conflict issues quoted in the news. I noticed the Al Jazeera TV show whose producers make a point of getting women for their panel discussions. Barry's leadership at the show led me to Proximities.
Proximities is precious to me as I need to follow at least a handful of the 100 conflicts underway in the world. It is one of my shortcuts. The way the entries are written is a master class in succinct reporting.
I want to sign this "mom" but I've already blown my cover.
I think I've told you this on Twitter before, but your site is such a great - and much needed - initiative. We were very proud of the work we did at The Stream on this.
Also, Canadian journalists are some of the best I've met!
Thanks so much for the kind words on the newsletter and your mom joke gave me a good belly laugh!
