    Hanoi (dpa) - Vietnam's most famous war-time spy Pham Xuan An, who worked as a trusted reporter for Western news agencies in Saigon by day and sent secret reports to Hanoi by night, has died at age 79, his family said Thursday. During the war, An was known as a "dean of the Vietnamese press corps," a crack reporter who brought fantastic contacts and keen political analysis to his work for news organizations including Reuters, the Christian Science Monitor and finally TIME magazine.
