Raising visibility for journalists imprisoned by Iran

Journalist Maziar Bahari was held for months in a Tehran prison after being arrested while on assignment. He's written a memoir of that ordeal, "Then They Came for Me,” plus directed a documentary called "Forced Confessions." Now he's launched a website that he's hoping will draw more attention to the dangers facing journalists in Iran. Bahari discusses the project with William Brangham.
