Finally one of the three networks has a correspondent on the streets of Tunis to cover the so-called Jasmine Revolution. NBC's John Ray found renewed street protests against the coalition government installed in Tunisia after President Zine Ben Ali was ousted: "The crowds were smaller than a week ago but the anger just as intense…They believe now that their revolution is being betrayed so the unrest continues." From London, CBS' Mark Phillips voiced over a graphic that literally showed a series of giant toppling dominoes, spreading across the southern Mediterranean from Mauritania. Martha Raddatz offered the view from Washington for ABC: "Not so fast," she advised, predicting survival for Hosni Mubarak in Egypt and King Abdullah in Jordan, allies of the United States both. "Leaders in the region will be keeping a close eye on these protests. As one analyst told me, you might see a crackdown on protesters--but also a lowering of food prices to keep the people happy."
"NBC's John Ray found renewed street protests against the coalition government installed in Tunisia after President Zine Ben Ali was ousted." Sort of. Ray is ITV's Middle East correspondent--NBC is just paying for the right to use Ray's material. He probably just adds a Nightly News tag line to the end of his ITV report. From mediaite.com (http://www.mediaite.com/tv/nbc-itv-going-in-halfsies-on-2-new-correspondents/):
"According to a report in the UK's Press Gazette, ITV's middle east reporter John Ray will also get a new dual-continent gig, with support from NBC's Israel-based production team.
The cost-sharing arrangement allows both ITV and NBC to stay closer to international stories while saving money. NBC says it's a win-win:
Chris Hampson, NBC's international news director, said: 'In a world of cultural and political interdependency, it is vital that we deliver to our audience first-hand reporting from wherever news happens.'"
From fishing trips, boat cruises, football clubs and private
homes to construction and work sites, Gold Coast strippers can work their magic at numerous locations.
This Summer I had a pleasant surprise when I went to feed the fish.
If I pay money I want my fish tank items permanently
so I can redecorate my tank if I wish.
