Koppel on Discovery: Iran, The most Dangerous Nation? is a documentary about post-revolution Iran and Iran-United States conflicts, made by Ted Koppel Team in Iran (2006).
Although facts suggest otherwise, it is claimed in the movie that the Koppel team was the last group of American journalists allowed into Iran before the Iranian government stopped granting journalist visas in 2006. This was a direct response to claims that the U.S. blocked Iranian journalists from coming to the U.S. Koppel, whose groundbreaking coverage of the Iran hostage crisis morphed into ABC's "Nightline" in 1980, traveled throughout Iran for three weeks for the two-hour special.
Koppel on Discovery is produced by Discovery Channel managing editor, Ted Koppel and executive producer Tom Bettag.

Follow the first steps in one of the world’s boldest experiments in reconciliation: the Gacaca (Ga-CHA-cha) Tribunals. These are a new form of citizen-based justice aimed at unifying this country of 8 million people after the 1994 genocide which claimed over 800,000 lives in 100 days. While world attention is focused on the unfolding procedures, award-winning documentarian Anne Aghion bypasses the usual interviews with politicians and international aid workers, skips the statistics, and goes directly to the emotional core of the story, talking one-on-one with survivors and accused killers alike. In this powerful, compassionate and insightful film, with almost no narration, and using only original footage, she captures first-hand how ordinary people struggle to find a future after cataclysm.

James P. Hoffa had been elected president of the Teamsters in the fall of 1998, and had campaigned on a promise to unionize Overnite and securing a contract for its 13,000 workers. The Teamsters represented only a fraction of Overnite's workers, but believed they could use other means to win company recognition of the union. Initially, about 2,000 workers walked the picket line in 12 states. The strike turned violent, however, and both sides accused the other of bribery, spying, intimidation and more. By August 2002, only 300 to 600 workers remained on strike. The Teamsters called the strike off without securing a contract or union recognition.
