The US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations has decreed that Radio and TV Martí, the voice of Cuban counter-revolutionaries, gangsters and CIA toadies, has no credibility – that they blatantly lie, use “offensive and incendiary language” and after 18 years have “failed to make any discernable inroads into Cuban society or to influence the Cuban government”.
It is recommending that radio and TV Martí are absorbed into the official US propaganda framework of Voice of America and relocated from Miami to Washington.
The Senate Committee further highlights the corruption and crime associated with these media outlets and estimates the Miami mafia aretop slicing some $500,000 from the $32.5 million annual budget. This rather puts it in a nutshell, though it fails to highlight the CIA role in this cesspit of “media freedom”.
