Golpe de Estado in Honduras: Washington Post admits guilt, sort of

2009 July 9

The Washington Post published an article, “In Honduras, One-Sided News of Crisis.” Who knew the Post would be so up front about its recent bias to the golpistas? Wait. It’s about news stations in Honduras that shut down and played futbol reruns as the coup was happening and the lackluster coverage by rags like La Prensa (there is no mention of Telesur!)? Hmm.

Also, while I’m into it, you need to read:

“A Coup is Not a Coup. A Not-Coup is a Coup,” by Kevin Coleman

“honduras: mass movement to defeat ‘pinocheletti,’” by Roberto Ramírez

“Latin America Experts Call on Clinton to Oppose Early Elections Option in Honduras.”
