Robert Fisk

One of the most decorated journalists of our time, Robert Fisk has reported from virtually every trouble spot in the world for over forty years documenting horrors few of us can imagine. His earliest assignments were during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. But most of his reporting has been focused on the Middle East from his home base in Beirut since then. Fisk has collected virtually every award in journalism, as well as honorary degrees, and is widely recognised as the finest foreign correspondent of his generation. He is the only journalist to have interviewed Osama bin Laden three times.
