John Pilger's work has been a beacon of light in often dark times. The realities he has brought to light have been a revelation, over and over again, and his courage and insight a constant inspiration.
- Noam Chomsky,
What makes John Pilger a truly great journalist is his conscience and bravery.
- Martha Gellhorn,
John Pilger is fearless. He unearths, with steely attention to facts, the filthy truth, and tells it as it is. I salute him
Harold Pinter
Pilger is surely the most outstanding journalist in the world today.

Pilger [has a] gift for finding the image, the instant, that reveals all. He is a photographer using words instead of a camera

Pilger is a first-rate dissident journalist.
