Many foreign journalists continue to work in Cuba.

and they now have been waorned to "auto-censure" a bit more, no?


They just have to stick to real journalism, not propaganda.

Actually what you and the Cuban government want is the opposite: you want
them to report the Cuban propaganda and not the facts as real journalists
do.
Raul Rivero, a Cuban independent journalist, was praised by Unesco for doing
just that.
He was put in prison by Castro for doing just that.

In fact, Cuban
authorities invited the news organizations employing the expelled
"journalists"to replace them with suitable candidates.

(snip)

"Suitable" in their eyes you mean.

Suitable for all concerned
(snip)

means that they should be allowed to freely express themselves and that a
wide variety of opinions is represented.
All what you hate.

But comrade Dan. What was wrong with Gary Marx's reporting?

Again, I don't make it a point to every report of Cuba published in
every US newspaper. Or every report by Gary Marx.

Translated: Dan Christensen can not quote ANY report by Gary Marx that a
reasonable independent person would consider objectionable.
Even then a democracy would not suppress freedom of speech.
You lose twice over Stalinist Dan Christensen.

You yourself praised his reporting on your website for yours nos.

I recommend the Chicago Tribune as a good source of reporting on Cuba
in general.

Nope.
You recommended the "Cuban bureau" and that has been Gary Marx since 2002.

Dan Christensen, serial liar, on his website about the Gary Marx (for years
the "Cuban bureau of the Chicago tribune)
Chicago Tribune
* good reporting from Cuban bureau
* commercial U.S. daily newspaper

Another l;ie by Dan Christensen exposed.

The Cuban government complains that the State Department refuses to
grant visas to Cuban journalists. The administration argues that all
media is in the hands of the Cuban government,

All media in the US is in the hands of the corporte elite.

Nope.
The media is in the hands of lots of people and new media like the
internet
are open to anyone.

All the major media outlets in the US are in the hands of the
capitalist ruling class.
(snip)

Nope.
The US has freedom of speech and the "new media" have ensured that ANY
opinion can be herad.
What bothers you is that the "loony left" does not control the media.

In Cuba ALL media are in the hands of the regime and repression of
freedom
of speech is everywhere.
To post anything critical of the regime one has to publish abroad and
people
that do are persecuted in Cuba.

They get prosecuted for being in the pay of a hostile foreign power

(snip)

Nope.
For expressing their opinions.
That is why Amnesty International has recognized a lot of them as prisoners
of conscience.
