Robert Fisk is an English writer and journalist from Maidstone, Kent.
He has been Middle East correspondent of The Independent for more than twenty years, primarily based in Beirut.[1] Fisk holds more British and International Journalism awards than any other foreign correspondent.
He has also been voted International Journalist of the Year seven times.
He has published a number of books and reported on several wars and armed conflicts.
An Arabic speaker, he is one of a few Western journalists to have interviewed Osama bin Laden, which he did on three occasions between 1993 and 1997.
Fisk is a pacifist and has never voted.
He has said that journalism must "challenge authority, all authority, especially so when governments and politicians take us to war." He has quoted with approval the Israeli journalist Amira Hass: "There is a misconception that journalists can be objective ...
What journalism is really about is to monitor power and the centres of power."[26] Speaking on "Lies, Misreporting, and Catastrophe in the Middle East", at the First Congregational Church of Berkeley, 22 September 2010, Fisk stated, "I think it is the duty of a foreign correspondent to be neutral and unbiased on the side of those who suffer, whoever they may be."[27] He has written at length on how much of contemporary conflict has its origin, in his view, in lines drawn on maps: "After the allied victory of 1918, at the end of my father's war, the victors divided up the lands of their former enemies.
In the space of just seventeen months, they created the borders of Northern Ireland, Yugoslavia and most of the Middle East.
And I have spent my entire career—in Belfast and Sarajevo, in Beirut and Baghdad—watching the people within those borders burn." He worked on the Sunday Express diary column before a disagreement with the editor, John Junor, prompted a move to The Times.
From 1972–75, the height of The Troubles, Fisk served as Belfast correspondent for The Times, before becoming its correspondent in Portugal covering the aftermath of the Carnation Revolution.
He then was appointed Middle East correspondent (1976–1988).
When a story of his was spiked (Iran Air Flight 655) after Rupert Murdoch's takeover, he moved to The Independent in April 1989.
The New York Times once described Robert Fisk as "probably the most famous foreign correspondent in Britain".
He reported the Northern Ireland troubles in the 1970s, the Portuguese Revolution in 1974, the Lebanese Civil War, the Iranian revolution in 1979, the Soviet war in Afghanistan, the Iran–Iraq War, the Gulf War, the Bosnian War, the Algerian Civil War, the Kosovo War, the 2001 international intervention in Afghanistan, the invasion of Iraq in 2003, the Arab Spring in 2011 and the ongoing Syrian Civil War.
In a 2002 appearance at the Cambridge Union Society, actor John Malkovich when asked whom he would most like to "fight to the death", replied that he would "rather just shoot" journalist Robert Fisk and British MP George Galloway.
Fisk reacted with outrage at both the comment made by Malkovich and for also "associating me with a jerk like Galloway".
