In 2006, George sat down with the pioneering Iranian-Canadian blogger Hossein Derakhshan, whose "Hoder" blog earned him the nickname of "Blogfather" in Iran. Two years later, Derakhshan was arrested in Tehran and convicted of spreading propaganda, co-operating with hostile powers and insulting Islam, earning him a 19-year sentence.
Today Derakhshan was released after having spent six years in prison (he was reportedly pardoned by Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei). From the archives, here's George's conversation with the Blogfather Hossein Derakhshan.
