He did a terrific job, and what he wrote, I read. When he talked, I listen. It was really depressing to hear of his death. I will miss him.

Thank you. Anthony Shadid has helped many of us become more understanding of the forces working in the Middle East. His reporting of Arab Spring from Egypt and Libya was empathetic, informed and incisive. Super, super post. Thank you.
