Fisk is my hero. Sometimes he wears his heart on his sleeve a little too long for his pieces to be considered objective, but he's right on the money about the story. And he's been around for so long, you know he knows about which he speaks. An inspiration. And I have his last two books.
Mine too. I heard him speak in Gent and was completely won over, having been convinced to attend after seeing him interviewed by a Belgian journalist on tv here.
