40. I can't believe how unsophisticated some people are here when it comes
to understanding the way the media covers African politics.

I do not care about Mugabe.

I care that the media is totally irresponsible in reporting on African politics and that it results in the level of sophistication we have here at DU.

It's really troubling.

Don't you see, the press loved Mugabe (and have loved every CIA-sponsored leader in Africa) when they stick to the neoliberal game plan. The minute any one steps out of line, they get assassinated and/or misrepresented in the press.

It seems like some people here are happy to ignore that this happens.
