EVERYTHING about the Kaieteur News reminds me about fiction and it is for this reason it has a penchant for lies, half-truths and distortions. Glen Lall and ‘Dem boys’ are too familiar with the make-believe world. The trail of evidence convinces us that Kaieteur News is imbued with a deeply selective and partial view of Guyana in-keeping with its allegiance to fiction.
In fact, Kaieteur News survives on the principle of dishonesty (refer to the dozens of misinformation published) which has a direct correlation to Glen Lall’s beliefs, customs and practices which he presumably used as a bora vendor to climb to the rich and famous level of society.
Glen Lall adores in fiction to the extent he is unable to account for his acquired wealth, outlining the activities, legitimate or otherwise responsible for his sudden reach to the rich and famous status. There are numerous stories out there about the lead role he played in several atrocities.
I enjoy being on the Kaieteur News list for fiction titles because it increases the disdain by Guyanese for this ‘news rag’ which will soon be hoisted by its own petard.
