This blog is a mix of Internet curation and global news commentary. It covers international issues, with particular attention to South Asia, the Middle East and North Africa. The primary concerns and interests are conflict, international development, gender, and social movements. Someone once described this blog as "News, Politics, and Spunk!" TPN is run by (and is the professional web presence for) journalist and blogger Torie Rose DeGhett, who works freelance and has written for publications like the Guardian, AlterNet and Guernica magazine.
