The Death of Anthony Mitchell,AP’s Ethiopia reporter since 2003 until his expulsion by the notorious then Information Minister,Bereket Simon, is really a big loss to Ethiopia and Africa in General.I had to wait till officials confirm his death partly because i don’t want to believe his death as he was really good to Ethiopians.A few days before this tragic accident i put Alan Johnston, BBC’s Gaza reporter, picture in the side bar in protest to his continued detention by Palestinian kidnappers not knowing this tragedy will happen to our hero,Anthony Mitchell.May God bless his soul!

    Anthony Mitchel may be a great loss to Cudergists but he is in no way a loss to Emiye Ethiopia. He is one MI6 agent that was meddling in our affair. I didn’t wish him, death, but his death is a loss to his family, nothing more. Don’t make him a hero he is not.

    I advice you to go back and refer his works specially regarding the May 2005 election.He can simply be a friend to the regime and spend time Sheraton with the so called higher officials of that country this is what others do.After VOA & DW lost their honest and professionally competent reporters only very few journalists like him stand with the truth.If you really care about Ethiopia you should advocate freedom of speech among others.Today we are witnessing when people compromise their profession and dignity just for money.But Anthony wasn’t. don’t you think this only makes him hero?thanks to his works the world have witnessed how cruel Ethiopian regime is by killing unarmed citizens shot in the head by sniper.
