Kissinger Ignores Subpoena from Chilean Court concerning Human Rights Violations; U.S. Press Buries Story

The ongoing international investigation of Henry Kissinger’s role in the Pinochet’s regime has now led to a Chilean court drawing up a list of questions about his role in the 1973 murder of American journalist Charles Horman by pro-Pinochet forces. The story has been reported in the Guardian (United Kingdom) and in El País (Spain), but is conspicuously absent from the international pages of the Washington Post or the New York Times. What a surprise—a member of the Washington power elite is being shielded by newsmedia censorship. Surely this has never happened before… Oh, wait, it happened about this time last month when US newsmedia refused to report on Kissinger being summoned by a French court [FAIR] for questioning about French nationals who disappeared under Pinochet.
