Iran versus Honduras -Coverage in the Media

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Monday August 17, 2009 14:15author by Mirian Cotton and David Manningauthor email tomeile at hotmail dot co dot uk Report this post to the editors

A subtle difference

Mirian Cotton and David Manning piece in Counterpunch discussing how the “dominant media” in Ireland treated the Iranian elections and compares that media's handling of the elections in Honduras which occurred around the same time. The dominant media Cotton and Manning refer to is the right wing, corporate press. The Irish left wing media which took an identical ahmadjian-stole-the-election, pro green wave line to papers such as the Irish Times do not get mentioned in the article.
