I remember it very well. I was listening to Al Pessin's report about the event every day at that time. After Pessin left, it was Mark Hopkins continuing reporting; and after Hopkins left, it was Heidi Chay(?) kept reporting. I got a lot of information about the event from these three people's reporting successively. A big shout out to VOA for sending over your outstanding reporting staff to cover the event and keep the world informed!
Al Pessin's got his top sellers behind him, all about violence, conspiracies, and scary stuff. Now he's retired but it looks like that he has fincial problem. So, he's jumped up again! It's all based on his dictation, all images are fuzzy , and unrelated news are stitched together to create so-called 'soundtrack.' He's definitely having some financial trouble!
When you are inside China to do ant-China reports for the West, you were lucky to have left the country alive! You should not complain about it. You should be happy!
