Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

UNCLAS TEGUCIGALPA 002405 SIPDIS FOR PD/WHA (RQUIROZ), IIP/G/WHA, WHA/CEN INFO IIP/T/ES EMBASSIES FOR PAOS, IOS E.O. 12958: N/A TAGS: OIIP, PREL, PGOV, KPAO, HO SUBJECT: MEDIA REACTION ON CARTOONS NOVEMBER 12 AND 13, 2005 1. On 11/13 the Tegucigalpa-based liberal daily "La Tribuna" published an untitled cartoon where a ragged man with holes in his clothes and disheveled hair appears saying "Let's see . . . now don't tell me, let me guess. You brought me new treats?" To the man's right appears only the enlarged leg and shiny shoe of Ambassador Charles Ford. 2. On 11/12 the San Pedro Sula daily "La Prensa" published a cartoon entitled: "Another Record." There are two caricatures: one who is running away carrying a torch inscribed with the number 182, he is also wearing the Cuban flag on his shirt and above him is the sentence: "`Olympic Record' for voting against the U.S. embargo against Cuba." Uncle Sam lags behind in desperation. Scrawled beneath a depiction of the audience members is the sentence "U.N. General Assembly". Ford
