NarcoNews...

I've had a hyperlink to NarcoNews to the right of this blog for a long time... but I'm beginning to question their ability to report the news in light of their lead editor Al Giordano's seemingly pro-Obama administration and anti-East sentiment as he and NacroNews alike ignore the slaughter of the indigenous Peruvians earlier this month. Here's my criticism I sent to him with regards to this post:

"I have to admit, I'm beginning to distrust Al Giordano's analysis of the events happening not only on the American continent but the rest of the world.


Of all the reporters on this website, of whom I enjoy reading, Al Giordano appears to be the least informative and most opinionated. At a time when the indigenous in Peru are being attacked and slaughtered by Alan Garcia -- Al Giordano has the time to write up a peice to take advantage of the New York Times inability to report the news (as if anyone here doubts this fairly obvious observation) on a country that is completely out of the scope of what is typically posted on this news source.


Three paragraphs and a couple of photos is all you could muster up for Peru but Iran deserves two articles on the front page? I come to this website to learn about the going ons of my fellow Americans and instead I am barraged with an editoral peice that I would expect to find in newspaper of a New York Time's competitor. Shame on NarcoNews and Al Giordano for this self-boasting when they fail to report on the plight of the indigenous of Peru. Helicopters raining death from above and all you can talk about is smiling police officers? I don't know, I don't know.


And back to BBC I go to decipher the lies and propaganda as I try to peice together what's going on in Peru..."


Although, I doubt that this will be posted in the comments section of NarcoNews because Al Giordano is the one who approves them. Here's a better source for knowledge on the recent slaughter in Peru since NarcoNews only seems to care about smiling Iranian police officers...
