SDNY / UN GATE,
Feb 26 – Antonio
Guterres, the UN Secretary
General who rarely takes
questions and even had the
Press which asked him about
the mass killings in Cameroon
thrown out of the UN, is set
to take questions and an
honorary doctorate at The New
School outside of UN in New
York City on February
27.
The New School
announced the event, and said
"Press inquiries for this
event should be sent to
communications [at]
newschool.edu." Inner City
Press, which daily covers
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York and biweekly the
International Monetary Fund (IMF),
as well as the UN
as whistleblowers
send it evidence of mounting
corruption, sexual harrassment
and retaliation under
Guterres, wrote to the
address.
And
waited.
It appears
that the state media that
Guterres favors in the UN -
including Xinhua, an arm of
the Chinese Communist Party,
as well as dozens of retirees
in the UN "press corpse" - can
attend at will, as part of
Guterres' entourage.
But isn't
The New School part of the
United States, covered by the
First Amendment? Watch this
site.
