Every since a comment about BBC reporter Mishal Husain was made by “Wayne” back on March 20th, Google searchers have been showing up here looking for information about her.
As an aid to these desperate searchers, here is a brief Mishal Husain bibliography:
Please note that the inclusion of this bibliography here is simply a service to our accidental readers, and should not be taken as a validation of a “reporter as celebrity” culture.
I prefer a damm good lookin' lady as celebrity, myself. Smart, well groomed, nice smile....what we used to call back in the good ol' days as "The total package".

I am in agreement with Wayne. My wife has noticed a level of focus I do not display with other announcers - except that fellow Finnigan and his asymetrical ears. My theory on Ms. Husain is the leisurely pace of her blinking...and the way she pronounces Afganistan with a "wa" where the "g" is.
POSTED MAR 27, 2003 AT 14:35 AST BY ALANWhat is it with his ears....I noticed that, too!! I am worried about the way she smiles at him during the news bridges. And, did you notice her left eyebrow, Alan? She can bend it almost 45 degrees...Lord have mercy!
POSTED MAR 27, 2003 AT 14:56 AST BY WAYNEI wonder if she is thinking about his lopey ear. By the way, is asymetrical ear observation a politically incorrect activity? You are on you own with the eyebrow thing, Wayne. I can go only so far in my BBC News host fetishes.
POSTED MAR 27, 2003 AT 15:07 AST BY ALANTry to watch her tonight and NOT look at her left eyebrow. (Kinda like forget about the water on the left)
Let me honestly know if you can do it.

Finnegan? Assymetrical Ears? I thought you were talking about Casey's companion from "Mr. Dressup".

From Spain: She's a lovely face, especially when she gives her right outline in the interviews, it's wonderful. And what about the way she moves the eyes from the screen to the camera? It's true: Lord, have mercy! If she smiled a little more...
POSTED MAR 29, 2003 AT 13:02 AST BY NESTIEN
It's the slightly disgusted/perturbed face she makes whenever she reports something unpleasant... like a bad smell just wafted past the newsdesk. I love that face!

I like her. I like her a lot. Not to mention that BBC News is more credible than all the other donkeys like Fox, CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC.
POSTED JUN 4, 2003 AT 22:28 AST BY GINOOh yeah, she was on www.superpowertv.org discussing war coverage this week. Very attractive and in a more casual environment than right in front of the BBC cameras. Man, she is beautiful.

It was during the September 11th attackes that I started watching BBC.Since that time I started searching about her on the net but I couldn't find any thing.Now there is a lot about her.I like her manner ,she is so gentle and respectable. I respect her a lot and wish the best for her.

POSTED OCT 14, 2003 AT 04:52 AST BY PERSON IN TOUCH WITH REALITYI really think CBC's Gloria Makeranko is even better looking then Mishal. And her delivery is so smooth, with great intonation, and emphesis.
When she thanks her audience for watching, I mutter to myself..."My pleasure!"

My buddy got a tv dish a year ago and I found channels I'd never seen before, like the Spanish-languague Univision and I went totally dippy for the Columbian knockout, Sofia Vergara. Recently, though, on BBC America I saw Mishal with those lips, sleepy eyes, and the rest! Sofia WHO?? Mishal's the doll of dolls!
POSTED NOV 17, 2003 AT 23:39 AST BY JC in MA (spodes4@hotmail.com)
Mishal's achievements are a source of pride to me, as a fellow Muslim. Actually, I'm amazed at how much motivation she had as a youth to become so worldy (leading her to teach in Russia, studying at Cambridge, etc.) Not to stereotype my own people, but Muslims are usually complacent and don't place any significant value on education or diverse experiences. Mishal is -very- well educated and well spoken, compassionate, (considering her thesis was on human rights), and on top of all that, is beautiful. And Muslim. Her husband is a -profoundly- lucky man (I'm 9 years her junior and I'm still a mite jealous).
Anyways, I really admire her, both because of her accomplishments, and because she's doing so much for us Muslims by simply being known; she contradicts stereotypes that unfortunately the majority of America (and many throughout the world) believes; that Muslims are Democracy-hating/women-enslaving/greed-driven fundamentalists (even if it's true of the Saudi government! ;)

A classy, attractive and intellegent lady with a well- rounded education. She's an asset to BBCworld's tv news. Her and her station's qualities are in complete contrast to the lowest-common-denominator North American broadcast media approach. The BBC actually assumes that its audiences have some modicum of intellegence! When will for-profit CNN/NBC/ABC/CTV Fox etc ever learn? Also, CNN's international tv station in London UK is more akin to BBC quality in terms of assuming that its audiences are nor culturally deprived urban hicks and boors who accept being interrupted by crass commercials every 3 minutes.

Mishal's ...well she’s the hottest thing I've seen in ages, perhaps the last being some primordial memory of heaven or some such... she is, in isolation, positively edible... its quite bizarre... creatures as delectable as her (despite my opinion that the possibility exists that she may be unsurpassably lovely)…I must regrettably comment, tend to be of the “two-short-plank” variety…. and here’s where we have evidence of there being an intelligence out there, Mishal… she’s scintillatingly gorgeous and amongst the most intelligent people on television, or perhaps amongst the population as a whole…. (considering pop-idol’s big in this country). The problem however, is that she seems to invoke an unwarranted fixation, to the BBC by her presence… one finds oneself turning the channel over to the news … hoping and wishing and compulsively waiting for her…

I agree with all your comments, & to think that i'm the only one who thinks that she's drop-dead gorgeous... can't find any good photo of her on the net though. she's the reason for me to watch news as oppose to movies

Maybe she is on vacation(?). I'm really not sure but I miss her as well. She hosts the PBS program "Wide Angle" and was on last night. I have not heard anything about her leaving the BBC...

Just thought you guys know, since I live between London and Washington, I see BBC News in the UK. Mishal Husain is now presenting BREAKFAST, which is the BBC's morning news show. I dont think the move is permanent - they call it an attachment.

Last winter, she announced in a Toronto interview that she was getting married... and by the way, she likes 'Friends.'
I expect her husband and her have decided to live in London. I thought she was going to cover the US election -- I was wrong. But she clearly dug being out on the road covering US politics. Plus, she's actually a better interviewer than that Katy Kay, cute as she is. She hits harder than, say, Dan Rather or Ted Koppel. And is generally better informed.
COME BACK, MISHAL!!!!
POSTED AUG 24, 2004 AT 03:13 AST BY BREDWYNShe is still doing HardTalk Extra (entertainment interviews) -- but she is very, very pregnant, according to my friends in London, where she does appear on Breakfast still, but only occasionally.
I expect she will go on mat leave soon.
POSTED AUG 24, 2004 AT 15:42 AST BY BREDWYN
Mishal's on Breakfast most mornings ... looking more and more gorgeously pregnant. Expecting every day to be her last appearance, but she keeps on getting bigger!
