Description: Letter to WBAI and Pacifica on East Timor and Amy Goodman, reporter and host of 'Democracy Now!', challenging attacks on her integrity and rumors that the Santa Cruz massacre in East Timor did not occur.
(August 17, 2001)
Open Letter to WBAI & Pacifica on E Timor and Amy Goodman Open Letter to WBAI and Pacifica Network/U.S., a grassroots human rights organization working in solidarity with the people of East Timor for over a decade, is deeply disturbed and troubled by comments attributed to some WBAI staff asserting that no massacre occurred in East Timor on November 12, 1991, that Amy Goodman was not present, or that she misrepresented her role. We know these to be falsehoods and to give them any credence is to both deny history and to slander a courageous journalist.
