Christiane Amanpour's real name is Nicole Johnston. Relayed to me by a rug merchant who learned it from her cameraman while on a return trip from Afghanistan. Said she jealously guards it since one of her parents (her father) is American.

A reporter using a stage is the moral equivalent of a translator using a fake accent.

Hah! Fooled by a rug merchant! Christiane was born in London of an English mother and an Iranian father. Roomed with one of the Kennedys at the University of Rhode Island. First media job was at WJAR, Providence.
