UN GATE, Aug 7 –
Inner City Press on 5 July
2018 was banned from entering
the UN, two day after it was
physically removed from
conducting interviews outside
meeting about the UN Secretary
General Antonio Guterres' $6.7
billion budget.
Then
Guterres' Department of Global
Communication, run by Melissa
Fleming, issued a letter
banning Inner City Press from
the UN - for life. With no due
process, no right of
appeal. Guterres has put
the UN in the US Press Freedom
Tracker, here. Guterres'
Spokesman Stephane Dujarric
falsely promised on camera
that he would be answering
banned Inner City Press'
questions - but see below.
On August 7 after Guterres again
refused to answer but
the IMF did answer, here,
and before an amateur UN noon
briefing not by Stephane "French
Whine" Dujarric,
previously the face of UN lies
on cholera in Haiti and now on
undeserved two week junket,
but by Farhan Haq Inner City
Press submitted yet more
questions (blocked by
Dujarric's screener Florencia
Soto Nino on +1
917 226 7816
and Dujarric
himself on +1
917 622 7652;
he directed
some favored
scribes to Eri
Kaneko on +1
917 208 8910,
who now blocks
Inner City
Press on
WhatsApp as
well)
including on the basis on
which it continues to be
lawlessly banned from entering
to ask questions in person.
Now also on the basis for
withholding publicly funded UN
video from the Press. There
was no answer from Farhan Haq
on +1 917 592 4591, not even a
confirmation of receipt, and
now UN official like Hua
Jiang, Eri Kaneko, now on
screen Jennifer Confilio, Adam
Smook, Marisela Rivera and
others to be named taking
public money for a UN briefing
blocking email questions about
the UN's spread of Covid 19 - May 21

On disclosure on Aug 5 that SG Guterres
is away for 2 week then will quarantine, now
