Photo of the Day: Entry Denied

Najeeb Al-Anbarri 11 July 2006



Photo of the Day is a BNN feature which offers a photograph on a day, and calls it “Photo of the Day”. This is not to imply that this is a regular feature, nor that this photo is truly the mother of all photos for the day in question. Usual disclaimers apply. In this day’s photo, we hit on the theme of Israel’s recent announcements to ban foreign passport holders from entering the West Bank and Gaza Strip. If it’s not one thing, with these folks, it’s another.

BNN offers a “Graphic of the Day” inspired by the short comedic piece, Browntown, written by Sam Younis.

Good job mate, the truth has to be spoken in weird ways in times when people aren’t listening to common sense.

On the right, someone has stenciled part of BNN’s header showing Ariel Sharon and Star Wars character Jabba the Hutt! 

In wake of Jayson Blair scandal, NYT assures that creative writing on Middle East will continue

Najeeb Al-Anbarri 13 May 2003



The New York Times is reeling from a humiliating scandal in which it was found that reporter Jayson Blair had been fabricating breaking news scoops during the Washington sniper saga, quoting people he had never spoken to, regularly plagerising copy from other reporters’ work, and claiming to travel to cities and towns across the United States that phone records and a lack of travel expenses did not support. Times executive editor, Howell Raines, spoke to concerned parties at a recent press conference in New York, NY. BNN’s Najeeb Al-Anbarri was present at the conference but has lost his ticket stub so therefore requests that you take his word for it.
