Dear EmailNation Subscriber,

Russia and the world have lost a great and courageous journalist. The killing of Anna Politkovskaya on October 7 is horrifying and shocking, but not unexpected. Read Katrina vanden Heuvel's tribute to a fearless chronicler of the mass executions of Chechen civilians at the hands of Russian troops and security forces.

You can also tune in to Democracy Now tomorrow (Monday) morning at 8:00am EST to hear vanden Heuvel talk about Politkovskaya's life and work with Amy Goodman. Check out the show's website to see if a radio station near you is one of the more than 500 outlets coast to coast broadcasting the program or listen online.
