It’s hard enough getting the straight news in your own language and culture. So when you spin the globe and move beyond your familiar languages, it can feel nearly impossible. There are, however, some universals. Check out TehranLive.org for photos of what’s happening in Iran right now. It’s not necessarily true that you can believe your own lyin’ eyes, but it’s probably more information than you’re going to get from your usual sources.
Update: As noted below, the photographer responsible for the image below (as well as the TehranLive.org site) has gone missing. Some info (and lots of speculation) in the last comment thread at his site.
