Farewell to Lasantha

[STVR1]

A Sri Lankan journalist killed on Jan. 8 will posthumously be awarded the 2009 World Press Freedom Prize, UNESCO said Monday.

Lasantha Wickrematunge, founder and editor of the Sunday Leader, had written his own obituary, saying he was committed to press freedom despite the risk to his life.

Wickrematunge started the Sunday Leader with his brother in 1994 and was outspoken in his opposition to the war between Sri Lanka's government and the Tamil separatist group, the Liberation Tigers.

Hay Brian,

Good job defending Lasantha! He was a great man...a fantastic journalist who paid the supreme price for standing up to the truth... He was also a good friend to those who knew him! Ignore idiots like billanews and don't let them rattle you!

[chandiperera]

Hay Billanews, First and foremorst, for someone who claims to know big wigs.... and tries to use big words ... you sure do a good job in murdering the queen!! Before you go about slandering the dead... I would suggest you learn a bit more about the people you are talking ill about. Also there is a thing called "Spell Check" in case your ignorant maggot brain did not know it!
