Congratulations Alan ...

Amazing, if bittersweet news, from the BBC today :

BBC NEWS | World | Middle East | BBC’s Johnston wins press award

BBC correspondent Alan Johnston, who was abducted in Gaza nearly two months ago, has won a major journalism prize at a London awards ceremony.

He was named broadcast journalist of the year by the London Press Club for his work reporting from the Gaza Strip.

What a shame he couldn’t pick up the award himself.

Remember to support the campaign to free him by signing the BBC petition or by adding the button to you blog or website.
