Shame On You BBC – Thank You VOA
Monday, July 27th, 2009

BBC Persian (British Broadcasting Corporation) covered Iranian people’s movement very well in the beginning. Unfortunately it didn’t take them even 2 weeks to start goofing off and not covering all the events. They stopped fully covering all the Iran’s regime’s killings and even made some of people’s gatherings seem smaller than they actually were.

Many of us, Iranians, felt let down by BBC. Even many conspiracy theories came out on the reasons why BBC has made this shift. Shame on you BBC.

I, as a former daily (hourly) BBC and BBC Persian reader have moved the BBC bookmark to the bottom of my News bookmarks.

On another note I would like to thank Voice of America (VOA) for covering all the events in Iran.Please keep it up. We need more news agencies that does that.

For those of you who are interested my News bookmarks are as follow:


Iran T-Shirts
Sunday, July 5th, 2009

After the recent events in Iran I decided to start a new website, Iran T-shirts. The t-shirts will be Iran related and mostly green themed.

I plan not to keep any of the site’s profit for myself and use it to help the Iranian movement. I’m still trying to figure out the details but most likely the profits will be spent on spreading the news (free bracelets, Free Iran banners, green posters, etc).

Right now there is only one design online. I will put more designs as time goes on.
