CNN Rings in New Year in Havana, Cuba, Ignores Oppression of Cuban People

breitbart

by Warner Todd Huston

During CNN’s 8th annual New Year’s Eve telecast from New York City with anchor Anderson Cooper and comedienne Kathy Griffin, the cable newser featured a segment from Havana, Cuba, and, while the network expressed hope for renewed relations between the US and Cuba, anchors made no mention of the Castro regime’s arrests of pro-democracy activists this week.

While Griffin continued her annual tradition of reducing the normally staid Cooper turn to an uncomfortable, giggling mess, the hosts cut away to several different New Year celebrations in other parts of the country. To show what New Year’s was like outside New York City, CNN went to such locales as New Orleans, a cruise ship in the Bahamas, Key West, Florida, and others. One of the places the show also visited was the famed Tropicana nightclub in Havana, Cuba.

Correspondent Patrick Oppmann was on hand in Cuba, and when the cameras turned to his locale, he celebrated the fact that President Obama had reopened relations with the communist-ruled nation.

Oppmann claimed that many Cubans hope that their lives will be bettered once Americans start going to Cuba. “Recently both countries announced they intend to normalize relations. And soon Americans will be taking in amazing shows like this one in Havana,” Oppmann insisted.

Oppman did note that “regular Cubans” can’t afford to go to the Tropicana and that the place was filled with Europeans. It didn’t appear he saw any poignancy in that fact.

But one thing Oppmann studiously avoided was any mention of the fact that Cuban dictator Fidel Castro recently arrested a group of political dissidents who had planned a pro-democracy rally in Havana.

Even as far back as June, Cuban authorities had arrested almost 1,000 of the Castros’ political opponents.

So, while Obama has offered his sunny expectations of welcoming Cuba to the roster of nations, the powers behind that island nation have not slackened the oppression of those Cubans yearning to be free.

Following the President’s lead, CNN was uninterested in highlighting the oppression that the Cuban people continue to suffer.

CNN's Jay Carney Was White House Spokesman During Alleged Prostitution Cover Up

breitbart

By John Nolte

At the time, during President Obama's 2012 reelection campaign, former White House Press Secretary and current CNN employee Jay Carney repeatedly told the White House Press Corps that no one in the administration was involved in or was being investigated for a Colombian prostitution scandal that ripped through the Secret Service. The Washington Post now says that wasn't true.

The Post's front page Thursday morning bombshell puts CNN in a unique position. While the Post claims "aides" knew the truth, no one is claiming Carney knowingly lied. Regardless, Carney's knowledge of who told him what and when gives the cable news network a front row seat at a breaking national scandal.

The Washington Post details three different occasions when Carney told the Press Corps what the Post's own reporting now says was not true:

 Also on April 20, a Friday, reporters asked press secretary Jay Carney whether White House staffers had been involved. He said his information was that the incident did not “involve anything but the agents and the military personnel.” …

The following Monday, in response to questions from reporters, Carney said that “there have been no specific, credible allegations of misconduct by anyone on the White House advance team or the White House staff.”

Carney added that, “out of due diligence, the White House counsel’s office has conducted a review of the White House advance team and . . . came to the conclusion that there’s no indication that any member of the White House advance team engaged in any improper conduct or behavior.”

The Post's online article includes video of Carney.

Thus far, throughout Obama's presidency, like the rest of the mainstream media, CNN has protected the Obama Administration from numerous scandals. Through indifference, the former-Most Trusted Name In News has only aided and abetted the White House's Benghazi, IRS, and Fast and Furious lies.

With Carney in its stable, CNN has an opportunity no one else in the media does to break this scandal open even further.

Thus far, CNN hasn't shown much interest in the story >>

La ultima desverguenza de la CNN: La Habana en la lista de las diez ciudades más saludables del mundo

Rolando Cartaya

septiembre 11, 2014

La cadena CNN ha elaborado una lista de las diez ciudades más saludables del mundo, en la que ha incluido nueve urbes del mundo desarrollado, (Copenhague, Okinawa, Montecarlo, Vancouver, Melbourne, Nueva York, Jonkoping (Suecia), Singapur y Napa (California).  Sólo una ciudad del mundo en vías de desarrollo integró la selecta lista: La Habana, Cuba.

El servicio noticioso estadounidense explica que en esta élite ha incluido a “ciudades que facilitan a sus residentes adoptar un estilo de vida saludable, bien sea por ofrecerles una buena atención a la salud, por alentar la medicina preventiva, o por reducir la contaminación del aire”.

Hay otras consideraciones, como la atención a los ancianos, las leyes contra el hábito de fumar y la felicidad (en Copenhague, Dinamarca, son más que felices: sólo el 2% trabaja 40 horas a la semana)

“Estas ciudades encabezan nuestra lista porque brillan en una o más áreas de la salud," precisa el texto introductorio de CNN.

La Habana fue escogida por alentar la medicina preventiva, uno de los puntos que engloba la atención primaria a la salud (también comprende acciones de diagnóstico, curación y rehabilitación, a nivel primario y local).

La selección de la capital cubana resultaba tan insólita que CNN puso la venda antes que la herida, en el primer párrafo de su explicación (“puede parecer improbable, pero…”) y aclaró que sabe que “en gran parte del resto de Cuba hay una miseria supina”. Entonces, ¿qué fue lo que de La Habana  llamó la atención a los enviados de la cadena, Sanjay Gupta y Matt Sloane?

La respuesta a esa pregunta son dos índices que el gobierno cubano suele enarbolar en su empedernida y unilateral "batalla de ideas", por ser numéricamente comparables o superiores a los valores respectivos en EE.UU.:  esperanza de vida (77 años en ambos casos) y mortalidad infantil (5,3 por cada 1000 nacidos vivos en Cuba; 6 en EE.UU). CNN se maravilló de cómo en la isla se alcanzan esas cifras con una fracción de lo que destina por habitante EE.UU. ($400 en Cuba, $9.000 en EE.UU.)

Martinoticias.com consultó vía telefónica, sobre este y otros puntos de la valoración de CNN, a tres especialistas en salud cubanos: los doctores Eduardo Cardet y Jeovany Jiménez, ambos ejerciendo la profesión en la isla, y el consultor de asuntos médicos del proyecto legal Cubalex, y diplomado en cuidados intensivos, Yaser Rojas.

Maduro: Amanpour de la CNN “me sacó unos billetes” y editaron “cosas claves”

noticias24

(Caracas, 8 de marzo – Noticias24).- “Yo le di una entrevista de buena fe a una periodista muy famosa, Christiane Amanpour, de Estados Unidos, a CNN en ingles, que es diferente a CNN es Español, CNN en Español pertenece a la gusanera de Miami, con el perdón de los gusanos”, sentenció este sábado desde la plaza Bolívar de Caracas el presidente Nicolás Maduro.

Insistió en que CNN es Español es una televisora “para justificar lo injustificable”.

Comentó que la entrevista que concedió a la periodista Amanpour duró 50 minutos: “Ella me dijo varias veces ‘otra pregunta’ y yo le decía dale, pregunta lo que tu quieras, porque me interesaba mucho que me preguntara todas las mentiras que en Estados Unidos dicen de nosotros para yo contestársela modestamente con la verdad que tiene nuestro país“.

Destacó que varias personas lo felicitaron por sus respuestas ante las interrogantes de la comunicadora social. “Cualquiera de ustedes que se siente con Amanpour respondería igual o mejor que yo porque es la verdad de un pueblo”, dijo.

El Presidente consideró que Amanpour es “muy buena periodista”. Además, reveló algunos detalles de la entrevista: la periodista “me sacó unos billetes ahí, a mi me dio risa, eso es una cosa anti-ética para un periodista, montar trampas y menos si va a entrevistar a un jefe de Estado, yo creo que ella no le sacaría una faja de dólares a obama así porque seguro CNN en inglés la botaría”, relató.

Agregó que él concedió a CNN 50 minutos de entrevista y que la cadena estadounidense la editó y la llevó a solo 30 minutos. “Cortaron cosas claves que yo respondí, por eso publicamos ayer la entrevista completa por Venezolana de Televisión”, remató.

Entrevista COMPLETA de Amanpour a Nicolás Maduro para CNN

Venezuela: CNN y Mariel | aguilera

Cesar Reynel Aguilera

Hoy, a las dos y media de la tarde, CNN emitirá la versión en inglés de la entrevista concedida por Nicolás Maduro —y quizás autorizada por Raúl Castro— a la periodista Christiane Amanpour.

Aquí pueden ver un pequeño fragmento de esa entrevista que ya, desde sus primeras imágenes, se anuncia como una concesión al castro-chavismo.

¿Qué hace la señora Amanpour vestida de verde oliva?

¿Por qué, de la extensa colección de trajes y disfraces con la que debe contar una cadena como CNN, se escogió el más castrense de los colores para entrevistar al asesino de Maduro?

¿Será parte del mismo programa, en aras del tan cacareado balance que se enseña en todas las facultades de periodismo de los EEUU, una entrevista con el líder opositor Leopoldo López?

En caso de que esa entrevista con López haya sido autorizada por Raúl Castro, ¿se habrá vestido de blanco la señora Amanpour para hacerla?

Nada tengo, a nivel personal, en contra del verde oliva; mi abrigo de invierno, por ejemplo, tiene un color muy cercano a ese.

Creo que a nivel individual la gente debe tener el derecho a vestirse como le dé su real gana. A nivel de imagen pública, sin embargo, está demostrado que hay colores que hieren sensibilidades y es mejor evitar. A menos que se tenga una razón poderosa —casi siempre el poder— para no hacerlo.

Mucho me temo, ojalá esté equivocado, que la tan cacareada entrevista de la señora Amanpour tendrá muy poco valor informativo. La información, para ser considerada como tal, tiene que aportar algo que esté fuera de la monotonía.

La reiteración constante, pasado un tiempo prudencial, pierde su contenido informativo. Y si algo ha demostrado Nicolás Maduro, a lo largo de todos estos años, es su capacidad para repetir, hasta el hartazgo y la monotonía, las mismas consignas que le enseñaron en La Habana.

Mucho me temo que en esta ocasión nada diferente sucederá y al final tendremos, cortesía de CNN, la versión inglesa y amplificada de las mismas tonterías no codificantes que Maduro lleva tanto tiempo repitiendo. Una de ellas, la más cínica de todas, es que el suyo es un gobierno democrático.

Hace ya un tiempo escuché a Oprah Winfrey decir que si hay una entrevista que a ella le habría gustado no haber hecho fue la que le hizo, en su programa, a unos supremacistas blancos. Unos pobres tipos, refractarios a la lógica, que respondieron a preguntas inteligentes y respetuosas con una sarta de consignas y un cinismo a prueba de balas. Al final de esa entrevista Oprah se dio cuenta que eso tipos, incólumes, celebraban por la exposición que habían recibido en su programa.

Algo similar puede terminar sucediendo hoy con la entrevista de la señora Amanpour.

Por suerte vivimos en la era del internet y tenemos a esta muchacha, que se hace llamar Mariel, para decirnos, de forma clara y altamente codificante, lo que Maduro, con toda certeza, nunca le dirá a CNN.

Stalin's dacha in Sochi: CNN Overlooks 'Uncle Joe' Stalin's Mass-Murder of Millions

www.thestar.com

breitbart

By John Nolte 

CNN.com's latest angle on the Sochi Olympics is what could have been a fascinating story about Joseph Stalin and his summer home. Instead what we have is an unbelievably sloppy piece of "journalism."

Built in that city in 1937, twenty years after the October revolution, the murderous dictator's dacha is now a tourist attraction in Sochi. For the uninformed, though, CNN presents "Uncle Joe" as a "notorious dictator," but also a loving family man who did remarkably good things for social justice:

"No doubt that when our leader began to visit Sochi, the city benefited from great development," [tour guide Anna] Hovantseva says.
"Earlier our city was the resort for the nobility, for only rich people. There had been tourists' villas long before Stalin came here.
"But when Stalin began to visit Sochi, he began to develop it as a resort town for all people. Thanks to him, a lot of sanatoriums and hydropathic establishments (and) a road to Matsesta were built. All in all, he did really much for the development of Sochi."

CNN tells us the reclusive "Uncle Joe" -- a man of simple pleasures -- needed the dacha to replenish himself after  a tough day of "ruling over 200 million people":

Nestled in the coniferous, cypress-tree forest of the Matsesta mineral springs area and perched in the foothills of the Caucasus Mountains, it was seen as the ideal refuge to replenish the man whose day job was ruling over 200 million people. …
"Generally, he liked to be all alone. He loved his wife  Svetlana and his children. He had no friends. He read and thought a lot. He enjoyed hunting. He also loved farming. He grew lemons (for medicinal drinks). So he was an unsociable man, I think."

Stalin might have loved his wife (CNN, the tour guide, or both are incorrect: the wife was named Nadya - Sveltlana was the daughter) but he also serially cheated on her, even with her friends. Nadya shot herself dead in 1932 after a dinner party where he humiliated her in front of another woman.

And Stalin didn't love all his children. He couldn't stand his eldest son from his first marriage or the reprobate son he had with Nadya. Stalin was devoted to his daughter Svetlana … until she betrayed him by falling in love. Stalin had his daughter's first love arrested and banished for ten years to an industrial town near the Arctic Circle where he was likely a slave to The State.

Hitler built the autobahn and Stalin developed Sochi into a "resort town for all people." But in order to complete his oh-so lofty socialist goals, such as resort towns for "all people," Stalin starved, murdered, and personally called for the executions of millions of "all people," and not just the upper class intellectuals, industrialists, and wealthy landowners. Millions of peasants were starved to death; their grain stolen to feed the cities and industrialize the "Motherland."

The day Stalin died in 1953 was the same day millions of Jews were scheduled to be shipped Nazi-style out of their homelands and into the Soviet death camps known as Gulags.

CNN points out that the portraits of Stalin found everywhere in the dacha were only hung after his death. "[S]uch was his dislike of them," CNN adds.

Actually, no. In fact, the complete opposite is true. Stalin commissioned untold numbers of portraits and statues of himself and peppered them throughout the country he terrorized for 25 years. Stalin's likeness was everywhere: streets, homes, businesses, streetcars…. This was how he built a death cult to himself and became Russia's god after destroying thousands of Christian churches and synagogues.

dacha-stalina.g-sochi.ru

The biggest factual error in this report is that Stalin didn't socialize. All his life, Stalin socialized and took his toadies home after work for dinner, movies, and drinks. Stalin used this "honor" to terrorize the ideologically-pure sociopaths who made up his inner circle. You were either forced to attend (until around 4 a.m.) or frozen out -- which generally meant you could expect to be shot.

 While married to Nadya, the Stalin's Kremlin apartment was a regular compound for friends and children. It was only later after the Purge and the Terror that Stalin traded in his friends for  sycophants. This is what happens when you personally have all but a few friends (and their wives and children) murdered. But only after they were forced to star in show trials and publicly confess to crimes they had not committed (though these gangsters were guilty of almost everything else).

Stalin might have grown lemons and watched Chaplin movies at his Sochi dacha,  but mostly he used it as a place to plan crimes against humanity in the last century rivaled only by Hitler. Can you imagine CNN writing something like this about Hitler? It's different with Stalin, though, because he was ideologically-correct -- you know, not all bad.

One thing Stalin always counted on to spread The Revolution was the "blind kittens" in the left-wing Western media sympathetic to his cause and easily flattered and fooled into covering him favorably.

Some things never change. 

Congressional Intelligence Chairs: We're 'Not Safer' From Terror Threats

Business Insider 

Brett LoGiurato

The chairs of the congressional intelligence committees surprised CNN anchor Candy Crowley on Sunday by saying that the U.S. is "not safer" today from terror threats than it was in recent years.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, made that claim in a joint interview on CNN's "State of the Union" on Sunday.

Crowley began the interview by asking a familiar question to Feinstein. 

"Are we safer now than we were a year ago, two years ago?" she said. 

"I don't think so," Feinstein said. "I think terror is up worldwide — the statistics indicate that. The fatalities are way up. The numbers are way up. There are new bombs — very big bombs. There are trucks being reinforced for those bombs. There are bombs that go through magnetometers. The bomb-maker is still alive. There are more groups than ever. And there is huge malevolence out there."

Ted Turner's son says Jane Fonda made dad a liberal

foxnews

Teddy Turner, son of billionaire media mogul Ted Turner and Republican candidate for Congress, said his father’s marriage to Jane Fonda prompted his major left turn.
“I was raised in a different time at the Turner household … a very conservative household with capitalism and all of that kind of stuff,” the younger Turner told Newsmax TV’s “The Steve Malzberg Show.”
Teddy Turner is running for Congress in South Carolina, where he faces former Gov. Mark Sanford in a Republican primary. His platform includes opposition to taxes and same-sex marriage and he is a global warming skeptic – all positions his father does not share.
“Yes, I’m Teddy Turner,” he said at a recent Republican gathering. “You can’t pick your parents.”
Ted Turner, who founded CNN and once owned the Atlanta Braves, married Fonda in 1991. The actress and workout guru, dubbed ‘Hanoi Jane’ for posing with a Viet Cong anti-aircraft gun in a misguided protest against the Vietnam War, apparently had an influence that outlasted their marriage.
“He started becoming more and more environmentalist and then Jane helped move things over as well," Turner told Malzberg. “Then when you start hanging around and everybody you’re hanging around with is liberal, then you tend to move more liberal.’’
In a recent interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, Turner quipped that his jet-setting father, one of the biggest landowners in the U.S., figures “he owns a lot of trees so his carbon footprint is pretty limited.”
Despite their political differences, the father and son are close. Teddy Turner told Politico that after his appearance with O’Reilly, he got the following note from his father: “I saw your interview with Bill O’Reilly on Fox,” it read, “and I thought you did a great job! I’m really proud of you, and I hope you win. Best of luck. Love, Dad.”
Teddy Turner, a 49-year-old high school teacher, said he – not his father – has always been consistent in his political orientation.

“I’m not a liberal,” he said. “People say how did you separate from your dad? I didn’t separate from my dad. My dad separated from me.”

CNN: Was Rubio's Water-Sipping a 'Career-Ender'?

breitbart

By Ben Shapiro

According to CNN, on Tuesday night, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) committed a cardinal sin: he took a sip of water from a bottle during his response to President Obama’s State of the Union address. They actually ran a chyron reading: “CAREER-ENDER?”

CNN now claims they were joking; “It was a tease,” said CNN spokesperson Edie Emery to Politico. “Wolf [Blitzer] specifically said no one thinks this will be a career ender.” But the media’s insanity over Rubio sipping water wasn’t limited to CNN. It permeated television throughout the day. In the view of the mainstream media, leaving a drowned woman in your car at the bottom of a river shouldn’t end your career (Teddy Kennedy); ejaculating on an intern in the Oval Office shouldn’t end your career (Bill Clinton); allowing a male prostitution ring to run from your apartment shouldn’t end your career (Barney Frank); leaving Americans without security in Benghazi and quietly going to sleep as 4 Americans die there isn’t a career ender.

Sipping water – now that’s the end of the world. After all, when all Democrats walk on water, sipping it just seems sacrilegious.

'Hate speech' targets 2nd Amendment supporters

WND.com.

Michael Carl

“If this hate speech leads to hate crimes, people like Piers Morgan and Chris Matthews will be partly responsible.”

That’s the word from Second Amendment Foundation Executive Vice President Alan Gottlieb on the issue of the vitriol that is being directed both at gun owners and firearms rights organizations in the aftermath of the Connecticut school shooting tragedy.

Gottlieb said the hostile tone against gun owners may lead to actual “hate crimes,” and some of the communications that have come into his office have been “vulgar.”

“We have received some vulgar e-mails from people that want us to vanish for the sake of a civilized world,” Gottlieb said. “This kind of rhetoric does not contribute to any rational discussion.”

He said the level of dialogue is only heightening a violent atmosphere.

“Vitriol like this only promotes hate, but apparently it’s OK to perpetuate bigotry so long as you are an anti-gunner, and a liberal. If anyone is harmed as a result of this hate campaign, we expect them to be prosecuted under the hate crimes laws,” Gottlieb said.

The Examiner reported Texas Democratic Party leader John Cobaruvvias tweeted that NRA supporters should be shot.

“Can we now shoot the NRA and everyone who defends them?” he asked.

Cobaruvvias is not the only one to post an angry tweet. From a Democratic Party Twitter feed came “Murder every NRA member” and another too vile and violent to reproduce here.

Ironically, the NRA reports that in the days following the Connecticut school shootings, the gun group gained membership. One report said that the NRA has gained 8,000 new members each day since the Connecticut shootings.

But the rhetoric on television and in columns has been strident.

One of the clearest examples of the tone in the dialogue is the exchange between Gun Owners of America Executive Director Larry Pratt and CNN host Piers Morgan.

In the interview Pratt said, “I think we need to ban gun control laws that keep people from being able to protect themselves. The problem is not going to go away if we ban this or that gun. We’ve tried that. That doesn’t work. Doesn’t even work in England. You have mass murders there all over Europe. There have been mass murderers.”

The dialogue:

Morgan: “You’re talking complete and utter – you are talking complete and utter nonsense. ”

Pratt: “The solution is for people to be able to defend themselves at the point of the crime and not wait for 20 minutes for the police to come after everybody is dead.”

Morgan: “What you’ve just said, Mr. Pratt, was an absolute lie. The gun murder rate in countries like Britain or Germany or Australia, who’ve all suffered massacres many years ago, similar nature, have – there are 35 people killed a year. Your country has 12,000.”

Pratt: “Your murder rate has – your murder rate is lower than ours, that is true. Your violent – ”

Morgan: “Lower? It’s 75 against 12,000 in Australia. ”

Pratt: “Your violent crime rate – ”

Morgan: “They had a massacre. And they got rid of these assault weapons.”

Pratt: “Your violent crime rate is higher than ours as is the violent crime rate in Australia. America is not the Wild West that you are depicting. We only have the problem in our cities, and unhappily, in our schools where people like you have been able to get laws put on the books that keep people from being able to defend themselves.

“I honestly don’t understand why you would rather have people be victims of a crime than be able to defend themselves. It’s incomprehensible. ”

Morgan: “You’re an unbelievably stupid man, aren’t you?”

Pratt: “It seems to me that you’re morally obtuse. You seem to prefer being a victim to being able to prevail over the criminal element. And I don’t know why you want to be the criminal’s friend. ”

Morgan: “What a ridiculous argument. You have absolutely no coherent argument whatsoever. You don’t – you don’t actually give – ”

Pratt: “You have no – ”

Morgan: You don’t give a d—, do you, about the gun murder rate in America? You don’t actually care. All you care about – ”

See the exchange:

Salon editor Jacob Sugarman contributed to the tone by his report on Pratt’s interview with Chris Matthews. Sugarman compared Pratt to a snake in his article.

“The reptilian executive director of Gun Owners of America, last seen telling gun control advocates that ‘they have the blood of little children on their hands,’ argued that we are less free without automatic rifles and need to stay prepared,” Sugarman wrote, inserting the quote from Pratt.

“Does this mean that the Gun Owners of America’s 300,000 members are preparing to revolt?” Sugarman also wrote.

Citizen’s Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Communications Director Dave Workman says the current atmosphere isn’t helping the situation and that his group wants to open a real dialogue.

“We want to really study the issue of what causes violence in America. We want to examine the issue of mental health in America and take a hard look at violent video games and television shows,” Workman said.

Workman says his group’s interest is to bring the discussion back to the factors that really cause violence.

SAF President Joseph Tartaro said focusing on guns alone “to the exclusion of possible other causative factors is doomed to failure.”

CNN's 'gotcha' hatchet-job on terrorism fighter

By Bob Unruh
© 2011 WND
The "gotcha" reporting of the Anderson Cooper program on CNN may have backfired, as a ministry organization in the United States now is going public with a long list of accusations that the AC360 employees lied about their "investigations" and actually used propaganda from a terror-linked organization for their story.
The recent programs concerned the work of Walid Shoebat and his foundation and related groups.
Reporter Andrew Griffin traveled to Rapid City, S.D., where Shoebat was speaking to a conference to confront him. He publicly accused a Shoebat associate of running a "scam."
"I gotta ask you because I do a lot of this type of reporting on charities, organizations that collect money… Everything is not very transparent. Are you running a scam?" Griffin asked.
