    Interesting article on the BBC website (perhaps a corresponding tv segment as well?) about one of Haile Selassie's most trusted servants. Highlights of the interview include a unique perspective on Haile Sellasie and Ethiopian foreign affairs, the famine in Wello (which killed +200,000 while HIM was in power), and the resulting coup d'etat by the Derg.

    Here's the article:

    What did you think? If you follow these things on the BBC, what do you think about the BBC's overall coverage of Haile Selassie, Ethiopia, Rastafari, etc.? Are they accurate, fair?
