Spinning the Colombian Laptop Story
By DAVID ORTEZ on May 22, 2008
Sometimes the media deceives its reader through omission. At other times it is direct spinning to follow along with the government's propaganda. The Colombian raid in Ecuador territory caused a lot of controversy but it was able to deflect much of their preemptive strike with "laptops" that indicated a connection between FARC and Venezuela.
The Real News Network analyzes the Interpol findings from the laptops. It then shows you how the American media interpreted those findings and had it "fit" with the United States propaganda. Nonetheless, this a great video to watch and catch up on Colombian/Venezuela news.
