A controversial
Cuban filmmaker adds to criticism of the official press (AFP) - 10/05/2011 Google translation. Revised by Walter Lippmann. HAVANA - Cuban writer and filmmaker Eduardo del Llano called Tuesday for a change in the press in Cuba, starting with the "Mesa Redonda: ("Round Table"), the main television news program, which he criticized as the most "scandalous" example of the lack of debate and the ideoloization of the' media. Del Llano, whose short whip the Cuban reality with edgy humor, criticized the prevalence of "concepts such as that dissent is tantamount to treason, that the citizen is a kind of vulnerable children who need protection from exposure to aggressive foreign entities." "That there are issues that do not talk about because it gives ammunition to the enemy, though everyone on the street comment, and above all, to expose in detail the mistakes of the enemy cancels ours, correspond to a mode see, do and proven ineffective rule, which only creates dissatisfaction, distance and mockery, "he added. "For journalism this country has needed one might start rethinking the 'Roundtable'" to front "various positions" and escape the "monotonous," insisted the actor, who has received several awards including the Festival Sundance Film for the screenplay of 'Life is to whistle'. Del Llano joined on his blog (http://eduardodelllano.wordpress.com) to criticism of President Raul Castro, who spoke to the press "leave behind, finally, the habit of triumphalism, the stridency and formalism" and criticized dissemination "on many occasions, boring material, improvised and superficial." The demands of a change in the Cuban press, all under state control and whose editorial line tracing the ruling Communist Party, are becoming more frequent. The singer Silvio Rodriguez last week called the press "to disrupt the stagnant bureaucracy." Established in 2000, about the saga of Elian Gonzalez rafter boy, the "Roundtable" airs every day and is broadcast, including radio stations. New!
