Michael's work this year...

I am about
one full day behind on the clips, due to various
software "issues" and the fact that my totally
unreasonable employer insists that I come in to work
even when I have far more important things to do! The
most famous footwear since Cinderella left the ball
meant that Michael was on during ten of the eighteen
hours of live programming on Domestic Monday. Add in
another three clips from International, and he's
already been on this morning, and...
At any rate, hopefully today will allow me to at least
catch up on the clips; transcripts may take a few more
days.
UPDATE: All clips and available transcripts from Monday
are now up.

The amazing
Délie sent me seven clips that Michael did on
International yesterday, including a piece for
BackStory. One program was before the NewsRoom clip
already posted, the rest were after it.
Also, the MJ article has been posted everywhere on the
web by now, so I no longer feel any compunction in
posting it here:

Men's
Journal has now
posted "CNN's Prisoner of
War" online,
and they show a different photograph than the one in
the print version:

The January
issue of Men's
Journal has a
three-page interview with Michael. It's a very intense
read, to put it mildly. The author interviewed him
twice, once in late April in Amsterdam (while Michael
was catching up on all the sleep he missed while
putting the Surge special together) and again by phone
in October.

Here are a
couple things I came across recently and wanted to
share. First, a photo of Michael from the IAVA/MTV
concert in October. I found this on Flickr:
Also, when
Michael was in DC last month, there was a big panel at
CAP about the situation in Pakistan. Michael was in
attendance and asked a question of the panel. Although
he is off-camera, I thought I would post the Q&A:
It's good to
have him back in Baghdad. Hopefully we'll get some more
info about what's going on over there!

Thanks to
Sharon for this find: while in DC today, Michael did an
interview with Matt Duss from the Center for American
Progress. Two short clips were loaded to YouTube by
CAP's media arm, ThinkProgress, and the uncut footage
was loaded to AOL video. Here are all three...

Michael's
"memo" is up, and once again he is mentioned as a
possible guest for AC360 tonight:
In
other news, US ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker calls
the Cabinet approval of a security pact that would
allow US troops to remain in the Country until 2011 an
“historic occasion,” as parliament prepares for a vote
on the pact.
Iraq’s Cabinet on Sunday approved the security pact
with the United States that will allow American forces
to stay in Iraq for three years after their U.N.
mandate expires at the end of the year. Will the Iraqi
Parliament now approve this version of the agreement?
Maybe we’ll rustle up Michael Ware tonight to help us
put this in perspective.
Since
he is in DC, I would think it's highly possible that he
may be on SitRoom today, as well.

American
Morning is doing a
series they call “Memo to the President,” and today
they teased the next installment:
Monday’s
“Memo to the President” deals with Iraq. Michael Ware,
our Baghdad correspondent, on a possible exit strategy,
when it could start, and how many troops President
Obama may need to keep in the country.

Michael is
supposed to be on AC360 tomorrow... although you know
how they love to tease and not deliver...:
Veterans Day 2008 arrives as a new president is about
to take office. With the inauguration just 70 days
away, we’ll look at the challenges President-elect
Obama faces in Iraq and Afghanistan and the strategies
he’s endorsed for both. His new administration has a
lot on its plate, to put it mildly. 90 years after the
armistice that ended World War I, Obama inherits two
war zones. CNN’s Michael Ware breaks it all down for
us.
UPDATE:
Michael was on NewsRoom very briefly this morning
(clips are up) but his appearance on 360 has been
downgraded to standby status... from the senior
producer:
On this day, the President-elect’s views on the wars in
Iraq and Afghanistan could become topics du jour, our
favorite Australian war zone correspondent Michael Ware
is on standby for us tonight, should we need to discuss
Obama’s stated strategies in fighting these
wars.
