Washington Post Staffers Call For Release Of Colleague Jailed In Iran

NEW YORK — Washington Post executive editor Marty Baron told staffers Friday that they can sign and share a petition calling for the release of their colleague Jason Rezaian, who has been imprisoned in Iran since July.

“The voices of many thousands of individuals calling for justice can do nothing but help Jason’s cause,” Baron wrote of the petition, “and it allows us to state clearly that we stand united on his behalf.”
