Finding face time with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. One-on-one interview with Barrack Obama’s top advisors. Q & A with the Executive Director of Human Rights Watch.
How does Rahim Kanani, BA’06 (Philosophy), MSc (Global Politics, London School of Economics & Political Science) land such high profile interview subjects on his less than year-old “World Affairs Commentary” website?
“Today’s media world is highly politicized, fragmented, untrustworthy, and spouting opinion as genuine news and fact. In this context, trust and reputation are the currencies that trade most profitably. One reason I’ve been able to secure these lengthy interviews with such extraordinary people is precisely because I’ve begun to amass those currencies.Each successive interview is built on a foundation of established reputation, and in this space, once you garner the respect of a few, the doors will open for the many,” says Kanani.
