More State-directed US media mobilization in support of US intervention in Honduras

The article titled Graft, greed, mayhem turn Honduras into murder capital of world in yesterday's Miami Herald is particularly well-crafted to appear sympathetic, but its pro-interventionist agenda is clear from:

  1. No coup relying on the same police under attack here to enforce it ever took place, and
  2. this:

    Many Honduran activists [emphasis my own] have called for the United States to intervene and help run the police. American technical security experts will head to Honduras soon. Colombia and Chile have sent teams to help investigate high-profile cases, and the Organization of American States sent a mission to figure out what role that diplomatic organization can play.
    "There’s no question we’re very concerned. It’s important for the Honduran government to do this cleaning-out process and do it willfully and effectively, as quickly as they can manage," U.S. Ambassador Lisa Kubiske told The Herald. "The police do not enjoy the confidence of anybody in the country right now."

This now-common media push for intervention stands in contrast to recent reporting by McClatchy reporter Tim Johnson, as noted in HCP.
