- Truthful Accounts – A View from Nicaragua by Stephen Sefton from Global Research. Referring to the impossibility for journalists to report on the truth in today's class-warfare-ridden world of the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire, Sefton writes:
... this reality is very sinister because it means reporting honestly on, in this case, Nicaragua, but it could be Syria or any country under attack from the US and its allies, is subject to abrupt and brutal professional, economic and social repression. Not only does any professional journalist determined to report honestly on countries like Nicaragua risk losing work and income. The knock on effect is that they might end up ostracised by colleagues unwilling to be contaminated by association, thereby risking their own professional status, economic well being and social stability.
