Canada[edit]

United States[edit]

  • John Seigenthaler Sr., outspoken victim of a character assassination on Wikipedia
    • I'd rather not have yet another Wikipedia story if possible - at least not as interview of the month.--Eloquence 01:48, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Paul Mirecki, Kansas University professor famous for his planned anti-ID course, his polemical anti-creationist remarks and for being allegedly physically attacked for them. Some room for tough questions here if he's willing to take them.
  • Markos Moulitsas Zúniga, founder of Daily Kos, most popular political weblog today, which also makes use of a wiki.
  • Heidi Fleiss, internationally famous brothel owner, who has recently announced plans for a "stud farm" in Nevada to serve female clients.
  • Rick Wagoner, CEO of General Motors. It'd be great to ask about the economic stability of the corporation, which ultimately has an effect on many workers worldwide.
  • Electronic Frontier Foundation they are always at several political issues at once and getting someone from there shouldn't be too difficult.

Europe[edit]

  • Frits Bolkestein
  • Christoph Schultheis, editor of Bildblog, a very interesting German "watchblog" that reports on Germany's biggest tabloid newspaper. Almost always has some interesting developing story that could be used as a "hook".
  • Boris Johnson, British politician who stated intent to publish the Al-Jazeera memo. Links to his WP biography on his web site [1], which suggests he may be agreeable to it.
  • David Cameron, recently elected leader of the UK Conservative party. [2]
