UN GATE, August 20 – If one is sure of having the right message, how far to go in shutting down disagreement? In China, for example, the answer is locking up critics and erecting the Great Firewall of China.
The United Nations is similar, but different.
Central to the UN's current work in this field is Under Secretary General Melissa, recently in the news, if not Google News, at the interstices.
But Inner City Press has a longer experience with Fleming as a censor.
Every weekday for three years, Inner City Press has written to Fleming seeking to end her Department of Global Communications' ban on its entering the UN and asking questions, as it had for years before she and Antonio Guterres decide to Sinofy the place, and ban critics.
No answer. A pro bono law firm, Quinn Emanuel, wrote to Fleming, here. No answer.
Like China's Xi, Fleming is so much her message is the right and only one, she will not accept any debated but rather abuses the UN's legal impunity lowers to ban and silence critics. And then try to silence even the complaints.
In a month the UN holds its annual UN General Assembly week. Before Guterres, Inner City Press covered this in detail from inside - but now it banned. It will be applying to enter and cover it. Watch this site.
