#2 I wasn't familiar with Kate Peyton, but I know the BBC Africa reporters have guts. When Liberia blew up in 1990, we listened to BBC on shortwave for the Africa report, since my husband's parents and a lot of people he grew up with were over there. Elizabeth Blunt delivered her reports from Monrovia and other places in a voice that suggested she was serving tea; we could hear the bullets singing in the background.
