The Independent "pulling" Baldock

Unlike Al, I don't find "pulling" Baldock's article as being signiificant,  Her story (propaganda)  was simply superceded by later news.  

What is more significant is why The Independent, in the first place, let her article through their vetting process.  And what is also more significant is that The Independent had someone else write the new story.

The real test is whether we will see her any longer reporting on Latin America for The Independent.  In any case, I don't expect an open "correction" to be forthcoming.

Long live the Bolivarian process!

All co-publishers comment under their real name, have contributed resources or volunteer labor to this project, have filled out this application and agreed to some simple guidelines about commenting.

Narco News has recently opened its comments section for submissions to moderated comments (that’s this box, here) by everybody else. More than 95 percent of all submitted comments are typically approved, because they are on-topic, coherent, don’t spread false claims or rumors, don’t gratuitously insult other commenters, and don’t engage in commerce, spam or otherwise hijack the thread. Narco News reserves the right to reject any comment for any reason, so, especially if you choose to comment anonymously, the burden is on you to make your comment interesting and relevant. That said, as you can see, hundreds of comments are approved each week here. Good luck in your comment submission!
