  Michael Yon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yon's dispatches have been excerpted by several American newspapers, including the Northwest Guardian, the Boston Herald, The Seattle Times, The Star Tribune, and the Weekly Standard.
Although his venture relies on the donations of readers of his dispatches, Yon has gained the praise of some well known and respected journalists, including war correspondent Joe Galloway and Michael Barone, a senior writer for US News and World Report, both of whom have praised Yon's work in their own columns.
Yon is currently calling for stories and letters concerning troops, especially those involved in Iraq to portray a picture not seen in mainstream media.

Michael Yon may not be a household name, but he emerged last year as the reporter of choice for many conservatives and supporters of the war.
Yon was working on another story when he learned that two friends had been killed in Iraq.
Thus Yon's dispatches became a valuable source of information for those wanting a full picture of what was going on in Iraq - people whose quest for knowledge didn't stop with what the local paper had to say - or worse, the two-minute soundbite on the TV news.

Yon's dispatches have been extolled by loyal readers as gutsy and honest reporting by a guy who's not afraid to get his hands dirty.
The slant of Yon's blog is unflinchingly pro-military, but he has frequently criticized Army public affairs officers in print over how news out of Iraq is managed.

 Mudville Gazette: Comment on Yawning at Yon in LA?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Mike Yon's blog was the first real clue I had that all was not as the media portrays it.
What bothers me is not that Yon specifically is criticised, but the pattern which I see of criticism falling largely on those who have something positive to report.
Perhaps the reason so many people like Yon is not because he is that good of a "reporter." I can't really judge what a good "reporter" is, but I would hope he got details right, understood the context of the war and tried to make sense of what we do.

 Tripod (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As its name suggests, the band is a trio consisting of Scod (Scott Edgar), Yon (Simon Hall) and Gatesy (Steven Gates).
The trio cover a wide variety of performance styles from soft ballads to hard rock, performing these songs with only the aid of Scod (and at times Gatesy) playing his guitar.
At times they use humorous sounds, such as "Yon and his Flute" from the Open Slather album, but the real magic comes from the lyrics of their songs and the chemistry between the three men.

Michael Yon is embroiled in an increasingly bitter battle with the US Army over one of his most gripping combat photos.
A crime against our troops who are starved for the type of balanced coverage Yon delivered, and a crime for those of us back here in the states who know we are being done a disservice by the MSM and their agenda driven jihad against this war and everyone connected to it.
Yon was being treated, and my beleif that the Army’s actions represented misappropriation of his work.

I, too, read Michael Yon as well as A Day In Iraq, Major K., Howdy's Blog, etc. While Michael Yon has a perspective that can be interesting I prefer the Day In Iraq for a number of reasons.
One thing I wanted to mention, Michael Yon is not only an excellent journalist who seems to possess a talent no longer available in MSM, but from what I understand he is also ex-special forces.
I trust Michael Yon is truthful in his writing, but also have faith that he would never write anyting that would jeopordize the soldiers.
