American Reporter Detained in Iran
A former Miss North Dakota, who’s been working in Iran as a freelance reporter, is being detained in an undisclosed location there.
31-year-old Roxana Saberi has reported for NPR, “The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer”, and Fox News Channel, among others as the Tehran bureau chief for Feature Story News. Her press credentials were revoked by the Iranian government more than a year ago, but she was being allowed to file short stories until her arrest about a month ago.
