He was a New York Times correspondent, has published several books, and currently writes for several newspapers and news agencies. Kinzer's reporting on Central America was criticized by Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky in their 1988 book Manufacturing Consent, which cited Chomsky in his previous interview by Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting describing Kinzer as: "...like an errand boy, building up those stories that fit in with Reagan's agenda - one day it's the church, the next day it's the Miskitos, then the private sector. In the last two weeks I've seen eight articles by Kinzer that say exactly what the White House wants. Kinzer always raises questions about Sandinista intentions, whether they're truly democratic, and so on. When you analyse his articles you see he's just responding what the White House is saying." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen... 907 Comments Auggie Giuseppe Add a public comment...

Amerikkka never does anything except for its own benefit. 14 Willy Whitten Willy Whitten 3 years ago I wonder why Kinzer doesn't include the overthrow of the Kennedy administration in the military coup d'etat in Dallas in 1963.

Sometimes the truth hurts, but we must face it this nation is the most imperialistic nation that this world has known. Strange how true history like this is never taught in history class.

This guy attempts yo portray certain coups as actually a good thing and pusposely missed others as a tactic to dismiss US responsibility.
