Re: (Fwd) [Nettime-nl] (Fwd) Fw: CNN sucks

[Andre de Raaij <andre.de.raaij@bureau.knaw.nl>]

Dat is het verhaal van die Braziliaanse student van indymedia.org.
Als dit de ennige bron is lijkt het natuurlijk wel weer een beetje broodje
aap (met ketchup).
Andere verhalen:
- ze juichten omdat eht Israelische leger uit Jenin vertrokken was
- het ware nmaar vijftien mensen, vooral kinderen - verder zat iedereen te
snikken bij de teevee (lijkt mij heel aannemleijk).
Zelf sluit ik niet uit dat het een grote familie is van wie iemand de
loterij had gewonnen.... Een familie van vijftien is nix in die streken.
