2. rabs, either you or Dreyfus or both mentioned this Colombian journalist earlier.
I remember very clearly looking for an image of his face, and locking on it.

This seems inconceivable to me the U.S. Embassy would dare turn this well-known journalist DOWN for his visa, especially considering Harvard has invited him to go there.

Hollman Morris is director of journalism program Contravía . It also makes independent
documentaries , a correspondent for Radio France International , a contributor to
several international TV networks.
