One of the few American TV journalists fully covering the aftermath of
Cyclone Sidr is IAN WILLIAMS of NBC News [full disclosure: because of my
own work for NBC, I will stick here to the facts and few superlatives; for
the record, I have never met Ian].

Please visit http://www.sajaforum.org/2007/11/cyclone-ian-wil.html to see
some of the video pieces filed almost every night for "NBC Nightly News
with Brian Williams" (no relation, I presume!) and to read his blog post
about what he saw in the village of Kalika Bari.
