On World Press Freedom Day UN Guterres Lies while Banning Independent Media Exposing Him

by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack

UN GATE, May 3 –  On World Press Freedom Day, the United Nations of Antonio Guterres is more hypocritical than usual.  

  While UN Global Communications chief Melissa Fleming put out a video of Guterres equating what he (and she) characterize as disinformation as the threat to press freedom, Guterres has banned Inner City Press from entering the UN since 2018, when it exposed the omission of links to bribery firm CEFC China Energy from his financial disclosure. 

 Law firm Quinn Emanuel, on a pro bono basis, wrote to Fleming and the UN Correspondents Association (with state media of China on its board of directors) seeking a dialogue to reinstate Inner City Press.

There has been no answer, nor to an appeal to Guterres head of security Gilles Michaud.   

 Still, ill-informed media run the Guterres video without commentary. Disinformation, indeed.
