UN GATE, Sept 23
– If one is sure of having the
right message, how far to go
in shutting down disagreement?
In China, for example, the
answer is locking up critics
and erecting the Great
Firewall of China.
The United
Nations is similar, but
different.
Central to the
UN's current work in this
field is Under Secretary
General Melissa Fleming,
recently in the news, if not
Google News, at the
interstices.
During the 2022
UNGA week she banned Inner
City Press from, not even
deigning to answer its application
to enter and cover it like
Xinhua and retirees, nor this
letter from pro bono
letter from the Quinn Emanuel
law firm, Fleming showed up.
Where?
Why, flacking for
Microsoft, of course.
Attending a Microsoft event
and speaking about how angry
Antonio Guterres is. Angry at
criticism and exposure, that's
for sure. Thin skinned lawless
censors, debasing what's left
of UN ideals.
But Inner City
Press has a longer experience
with Fleming as a
censor.
Every
weekday for three years, Inner
City Press has written to
Fleming seeking to end her
Department of Global
Communications' ban
on its entering the UN and
asking questions, as it had
for years before she and
Antonio Guterres decide to
Sinofy the place, and ban
critics.
No answer.
A pro bono law firm, Quinn
Emanuel, wrote to Fleming, here.
No answer.
Like
China's Xi, Fleming is so much
her message is the right and
only one, she will not accept
any debated but rather abuses
the UN's legal impunity lowers
to ban and silence critics.
And then try to silence even
the complaints.
In a month
the UN holds its annual UN
General Assembly week. Before
Guterres, Inner City Press
covered this in detail from
inside - but now it banned. It
will be applying to enter and
cover it. Watch this site.
