Reporters of Al Jazeera and Telesur (Venezuela), attending a meeting of journalists at the Marriott Hotel in Tegucigalpa today, were stopped from broadcasting, and asked to leave by the TSE, after international observers overwhelmingly complained that they were heard falsely broadcasting that less than 25% of Hondurans showed up at the polls to vote.

They represent terrorist governments, so what can you expect? What do they know of Democracy? I am glad they were caught lying and thrown out.

Good show, for the freedom of speach carries along with it the responsability to be truthful.
Voicing opinions is one thing. spreading lies something totally different.
So good for telling them that Honduras has no time for such stupidity.
The lady (Patricia) from ‘CNN’ who was transmitting from Honduras seemed very enthusiastic about the show of force by the voters, but the one in the studio was not very much so, too bad.

It is so sad that news people now adays feel entitled to change peoples believes by twisting the truth, or by omission of all the information, leaving out what does not serve their purpose.
