Where is Jackie Northam from? I can't place her accent. She seems to be from the north-central U.S. or Canada. Ikaszpcj 12:50, 20 March 2007 (UTC) reply

It's a Canadian accent. She was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta. See https://www.npr.org/2011/05/29/136686074/becoming-an-american-a-proud-canadians-story --- Dagme ( talk) 17:01, 8 November 2017 (UTC) reply

"has covered National Security for National Public Radio (NPR)..... and is generally assigned the top stories such as the earthquake in Haiti"

The earthquake in Haiti is a top National Security story for NPR. A good example of what is perversely wrong with NPR (and what is wrong with the US government). --- Dagme ( talk) 15:21, 20 November 2011 (UTC) reply
