4 місяці томуAustralian journalist and filmmaker John Pilger has passed away at the age of 84.

The passing of John Pilger is a great loss to humanity. He wasn’t just the finest investigative journalist; his incredible ability to combine rational analysis with compassion, outrage and courage was ever present in every report, in every documentary. He defended the truth, no matter what. He stood up for the oppressed and told their story for the world to see. I shall miss his reports and documentaries. Rest in peace.

In 1954, John Pilger and I were both in class 3D at Sydney Boys' High School. I doubt if I ever talked with him, he was much more mature than me, and I doubt if I ever registered with him. But I always remember him. Even then he would question things - rules, beliefs, opinions, not in an insolent way, but with logic and eloquence. As he progressed through his career, I do not remember anything he ever said that I would disagree with. He was a great Australian, one of the greatest, and I only wish that our World's politicians took more notice of him. He was a better man than all of them! I never saw him again after 1954, but I will miss his humanity, eloquence and brave ciommitment. So will we all.

I have watched several of Pilgers documentaries, several times - and read a lot of his articles. To me he stands as a highly relevant, critical journalist and filmmaker, who personally was very social competent and peaceful. Intellectually very well equipped. Empathic. Eager. I will miss him as a human figure and his work a lot - but mostly I appreciate the enormous amount of journalism, he has provided to the world. A legacy of perspectives, analysis and representations of reality, we all can learn from. He will live on (in me and many others, as we see and hear) as a ghost of thought- and heartfulness.
