Evan and Phoebe both take on the ever ridiculous Yale Herald. While i agree with Evan that the YDN's totally obnoxious, lately the Herald hasn't been too much better. Their coverage of the second strike was absolutely horrid.

Right wing Yale student Keith Urbahn joins Alex Hetherington in demanding that those of us who took part in the Cocal Cola protest a few weeks back to publicly apologize for our "heinously rude and ignorant actions." All this because Douglas Daft pays thousands of dollars to get the YDN to tell us that niether colombia's notoriously corrupt government, nor the Miami judiciary, nor a company union, nor an "independent investigation" by Coke have revealed any wrongdoing. Yeah right. Maybe Urbahn should do some research of his own. I reccomend Deborah Levenson-Estrada's Trade Unionists Against Terror, which talks about Coke's activities in Guatemala in the 80s during the horrific US-backed regimes of dictatorship, terror and death squads.

Thanks for the link (i think) to Organized Crime For Bush
