Euna Lee & Laura Ling thank-you video for supporters

This is a nice touch in the age of social media — direct communication with the people who supported their cause and hoped and prayed for their release with petitions, Facebook posts, Tweets and candlelight vigils.

It’s nice timing, since the plenary session for the first full day of the Asian American Journalism Association convention in Boston kicks off this morning with a session titled “Journalists in Jeopardy,” about the plight of reporters such as Euna Lee and Laura Ling, as well as Roxana Saberi.
