Ted Johnson of Deadline Hollywood writes about the read-a-thon held to recognize the one-year anniversary of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich being held in Russia.
Johnson, writes, “To mark the anniversary, the Journal held a 24-hour Read-A-Thon, with reporters and colleagues doing a public reading of his reporting. Among those who participated were CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt, Fox News’ Dana Perino and CNN’s Abby Phillip.
“Fox Nation also is debuting a special today, Prisoner of Putin, featuring the network’s senior correspondent Steve Harrigan, who was formerly based in Moscow, as well as Gershkovich’s colleagues at the Journal, Gordon Fairclough and Paul Beckett, and close friends Jeremy Berke and Sam Silverman.
“President Joe Biden said at the State of the Union address that the U.S. is working ‘around the clock’ to bring Gershkovich home, along with another detained American, Paul Whelan.”
