A conversation with author and journalist David Ignatius
Keywords:
A conversation with David Ignatius, associate editor and columnist for The Washington Post. Ignatius discusses his book, Body of Lies.


























Did anybody else notice that David Ignatius is wearing exactly the same tie he wore in an interview with Charlie 10 years ago?
Dear Mr. Rose, I listen to your program nightly. You are a superb journalist and your program is the best at helping people understand complex and relevant issues in the world today. Thank you for all the hard work that you and your staff do to bring these issues before the public. I do believe these programs should be rebroadcast at an earlier time for all those working Americans that never stay up past 10 pm. I listened to your interview on Monday, July 16th with the China representative. After listening to him spout on and on about how China respects other nations and only wants peace and has no militaristic designs on other countries in the world I was so dissappointed in you, Charlie, for not bringing up TIBET. What about TIBET? How could you let him get away with saying all that and not bring up TIBET? And you didn't address HUMAN RIGHTS in China today either. WHY? WHY? WHY? You let him go on with all that propaganda about Peaceful China and not a word about the suppression of the rights of the people in Tibet or China proper. This is the first time I have ever been dissappointed in you. Where is the counter program to tell the truth about the way people are treated in Tibet and how human rights are suppressed in China? I have been to Tibet and seen the effects of suppression on the people there. China has come a long way toward democracy and achieving good international relations but they have still never acknowledged that taking over Tibet was wrong. Sincerely, Lorraine Lombard
