Communist Party officials "interview" independent journalist
HAVANA, Cuba - June 9 (Luis Cino / www.cubanet.org) - Communist Party
officials, who in Cuba are called "community factors" (don't ask) called
in independent journalist Juan González to scold him for an article he
wrote recently about Cuban President Castro's reputed wealth.
During the interview June 7 at the offices of the Ministry of Interior
Commerce, officials expressed their dissatisfaction with the article,
"Personal Wealth vs. Discretionary Wealth," that they called
"counterrevolutionary."
Officials told González that the article had been written "with the
worst of intentions" and that it discredited the public image of Fidel
Castro.
When González tried to explain his position, officials cut him short,
saying "they would not have a discussion with a convinced
counterrevolutionary."
It never became clear to González what, if any, concrete measures
officials contemplated taking against him.
