Thousands of people have come out to show their support of the new government in Honduras. But the media is reluctant to cover or report accurately what has happened, and what is happening in Honduras.

But these Honduran bloggers are determined to get the word out and set the record straight in light of media bias, and the irresponsible support Obama and other world leaders are giving to this would-be usuper. More-

Media Schadenfreude and Media Shenanigans PING

The media that championed the use of twitter and the web in Iran to “get the word out” is reluctant to expose their own bias in reporting on the events in Honduras.

"He had planned a referendum that was designed to allow him to be president for life. The referendum had been ruled illegal by the Supreme Court and the Congress of Honduras last week. On Thursday, June 25, he announced on live television that he desired for anyone on "his side" to meet him at the Air Force station in Tegucigalpa in order to take the illegal ballots by force. A mob of hundreds joined him, as the air force commanders passively handed over the ballots, which had been delivered that morning from Venezuelan presses. He then returned exultantly to the airwaves for a two-hour emotionally charged speech, at one point bursting into song, and at other times, mocking the members of the military and assembly. "

Its a good read, thanks for the link.

Clearly this is NOT a Hussein-approved media report! Those darned satellites and stuff really make it tough on dictators who need to control the news.

the media are working in sync with the left and we need to inform as many as possible .
There are so many sheep and brainless fools out there who watch MSNBC, CNN etc and think they are telling the truth.

Chavez, castro are behind this and yes I think Bozo in the white house is also working behind the scenes

The left around the world is trying to take over countries backed by the UN.

We now see Bozo ignoring our allies including our best the UK because they are all turning to the right , meanwhile ACORN is working in other countries now looking to do what they did here.

A woman named laurie posted what is really going on. I have copied the last part. I am so ashamed of America’s stance on Hondurus:

(from Laurie)......”A friend commented on the remarkably one-sided coverage of the crisis, “A few hundred rioters throwing rocks at soldiers and the police and water cannon makes much better news than thousands of supporters holding their hands above their hearts with tears streaming down their face singing the national anthem.”

Honduras is a small and underdeveloped country. It can ill afford the bad reputation that the world has for its leaders. However, I hope and pray that world would consider carefully the events surrounding the removal of Mr. Zelaya.

I am reminded of the words of the prophet Amos:

Do you know what I want?

I want justice—oceans of it.
I want fairness—rivers of it.
That’s what I want. That’s all I want. Amos 5:24

As rivers and oceans of people are marching across the land of Honduras, one can only hope and pray that the world will take notice of a small country that seeks to live in peace, freedom and development.”

RE: The MSM

Nothing's changed since the 1980s (1960s actually) except for me, I threw my TV away more than a decade ago.

In the '80s I wanted to know who were the commies and who were the good guys vis-à-vis the Sandinistas and the Contras.

I'd already quit watching the network "news" but I knew that just a couple of minutes of watching would answer the question.

It worked. The Sandinistas got adoring coverage and the Contras were trashed.
