WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Freedom to Travel Campaign, a project of the Center for International Policy, devoted to legalizing travel to Cuba, has placed a print advertisement in El Nuevo Herald urging action by Cuban-Americans and others against the toughened travel restrictions to Cuba issued this year by President Bush. The half-page, Spanish language advertisement features a picture of President George W. Bush under the headline "One Man Cancelled Christmas in Cuba, and it wasn't Fidel Castro...
CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is one of the world's most talkative leaders and his prolonged silence and seclusion in Cuba following surgery there two weeks ago is fueling speculation about his health. Concerns grew Saturday night when El Nuevo Herald, a Miami newspaper, reported that Chavez remains in a Cuban hospital in critical condition. The newspaper, quoting U.S. intelligence officials, said Chavez is "not grave, but critical, in a complicated situation.
MIAMI -- Hugo Chavez's extended stay in a Cuban hospital is because he is in critical condition, according to a report in El Nuevo Herald. The Venezuelan president, who was last seen in public on June 9 and last heard from on June 12 on a phone call with Venezuelan state television, was said to have been treated for a pelvic abscess in Cuba.

No, make that George Bush. No, make that ..."): accepting payment from the government in exchange for news coverage (three journalists formerly at "El Nuevo Herald" in Miami, and others); plagiarizing (too many culprits to name here); and juicing their stories with loaded language and sensational imagery (again, we don't have enough space to start naming names).

What else would explain an ABC reporter's "story" about a medical procedure that just happened to play a starring role in the episode...
MIAMI - Co-workers and friends puzzled over what led cartoonist Jose Varela to bring a knife and what appeared to be a machine gun to the El Nuevo Herald newsroom Friday, holing himself up for more than three hours before surrendering to police. No one was injured. Mr. Varela, 50, worked on a freelance basis for the Spanish-language paper, a sister paper to The Miami Herald. Police said Mr. Varela used to be a full-time employee at El Nuevo Herald. He has been charged with three counts of aggravated assault.
