Past perfect meaning
Please explain the use of past perfect in the following "I have been corresponding with his father, Vladimir Kara-Murza Sr., a longtime television and radio journalist who had spent the past decade working for what is left of Russia’s independent media". From the the story it is clear that he still works for the independent media, so why past perfect is used? http://www.nybooks.com/daily/2017/02/21/total-catastrophe-of-the-body-kara-murza-poisoning/ The third abstact if the conext is needed. Thanks a lot.
