Amanpour is not an Iranian American. Her mother is British and she was born in London.

The article could use a little discussion about the political implications of the terms Iranian and Persian among the American diaspora, and perhaps if anyone has any data, what proportion identify with either or both terms. --Delirium 11:40, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I didn’t know that US Census estimates the number of people; I thought it was based on facts and figures and was very accurate! Are you telling me that census is a guess work with over 50% error? What a mess! Less than 60,000 Iranians migrated to the US between 2000-2005, so how the population doubled from 330,000 to 690,000? Doesn’t the immigration department know how many visas they issued for Iranians or how many have greencards or citizenship? What a mess! Kiumars
