To date I've been a fan of Yon, but this blog piece left a sour taste. It's not journalism at all, it's a rant, with diversions about going to the Netherlands, the ending of the embed etc, and it suggests he's allowed his ego to get bigger than the story.

A good journo leaves all that for the autobiography much later, and in the meantime gets on with putting together accurate and timely stories that give insight to the reader, something at which he normally excels.
