Covering Iran without a Press Pass
NPR / Roger Cohen
14-Jul-2009 (2 comments)

New York Times journalist Roger Cohen stayed in Iran to cover the post-presidential election protests — even after the Iranian government revoked all foreign press passes.

Cohen gives an eyewitness account of the attacks against demonstrators in the wake of the June election. He also talks about how the situation will affect President Obama's ability to open relations with Iran.

Roger Cohen is one of the more astute journalists covering Iran.  I have found his editorials in the NY Times to be particularly enlightening.  He seems to have stayed behind in Iran after the foreign press was asked to leave.  His coverage should be of interest.
