Cuba to Journalists : No Credentials For You

Three major media organizations were told adios, that they could no longer report from Cuba. The three news outlets are the Chicago Tribune, the BBC, and El Universal from Mexico. Two of the journalists have been in Cuba for a number of years. The Chicago Tribune’s Gary Marx was told he had 90 days to leave the island. Cesar Gonzalez Calero from El Universal can stay in Cuba because his wife is a credentialed Spanish journalist. The BBC is in negotiations with Cuban officials in Havana regarding the matter. The reason why the journalists are being asked to leave? Calero was told:…
his reporting was “not the most convenient for the Cuban government.”
Whenever the free reporting of information is threatened, it’s problematic, be it here in the U.S. or Cuba.
