John Mayer was out dining with a male friend on Tuesday night at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, where, although the private exit was ready for him, Mayer decided to leave out the front door - right into the sea of awaiting paparazzi.
As Mayer ducked into his awaiting BMW, his bodyguard pushed a photog to the ground and then briefly grabbed him by the throat.
E! then says:

But see Fareed Zakaria’s bio on the Newsweek website:
Quote: Zakaria has won several awards for his columns and cover essays, in particular for his October 2001 Newsweek cover story, "Why They Hate Us." In 1999, he was named "one of the 21 most important people of the 21st Century" by Esquire magazine. In 2007, he was named one of the "top 100... more
