Hey, these people from the real news really deserve the name they have. Just a few independent media sources are really depeicting what is happening in Honduras. Excellent reports!!

[NathanZackery]

The difference between what the President says and reality is astonishing. He claims to be a 'Christian-humanist' while at that very moment his police are beating people and shooting tear gas at them.

Sadly, it seems the history of Honduras has taken a turn for the worse once again.

This is a False report

Police here water in the mouth to be able to do this. Cops are no different in Honduras or anywhere.

Mr. Revolucionario02; are you watching the news? what is all the lalala that you are saying, do you live in Honduras? who have told you that the mayority of the people wants a constitution referendum? for the way that you are writing I am assuming that you are Mr. Chavez president for life. DICTATOR FOR LIFE...

the asshole Zelaya was playing with Chavez's girlfriend and got sucked to his communista influence. He broke the laws of their constitution, and the congress voted to remove him. I applaud the honduran government on fighting for their democracy. I wished there was someone in the U.S. government that had the balls to fight against the rape of our constitution, and our bill of rights.

Get your chips fuckers, and enjoy the dip.

"Hey why dont you show the 70% that supported the elections" As a matter of fact this reporter interviewed the Honduran Electoral Tribunal (TSE) which clearly admits it invented the 62% participation figures it announced on the day, over 49% which were its own internal figures: /watch?v=1O_0uJqoVtI&feature=c­hannel

killing men women and children?

censoring all media?

Hey why dont you show the 70% that supported the elections? This goes to show how one sided the media has become. The regime is what saved the democracy in the country. The idio Zelaya wanted to convert it to how Chavez is running venezuela. Get your facts straight. Stupid left wing commie journalists. Thos protesters on the streets of San Pedro Sula will protest anything as long as theyre paid.
