“Do you know about Newsweek’s seedier side, online?” is our favorite quote of the year. We should have that printed on T-shirts….
“Why is this American dressed like a spy, Mr. Bahari?” asked the new man.
“He is pretending to be a spy. It’s part of a comedy show,” I answered.
“Tell the truth!” Mr. Rosewater shouted.
“What is so funny about sitting in a coffee shop with a kaffiyeh and sunglasses?”
“It’s just a joke. Nothing serious. It’s stupid.” I was getting worried. “I hope you are not suggesting that he is a real spy.”
From Maziar Bahari’s piece in the new Newsweek. The bit he was interrogated about by Iranian officials starts at 2:14.
