Freelancer’s Services Terminated

Editor noteAntigua St. John's - After reporting on an incident in an article on Monday March 4, which claimed that he had been shot at, following the West Indies vs Zimbabwe cricket match at the Sir Vivian Richards cricket stadium, the freelance writer involved has been relieved of providing further services to Caribarena Today.

The report and article caused a firestorm of discussion, suspicion, and queries, which the freelancer was asked to address in a statement. He chose to “respectfully decline” to comment, or assist in any way in our internal inquiry into the matter.

Caribarena prides itself on reliably informing and educating our readers. Credibility, integrity, and willingness are just a few of the rocks within our foundation that we are building on, and we will not be associated with those that appear to jeopardize that.



Effective immediately, Caribarena Today no longer uses the services of AH Communications or Alex Holder Snr. They are no longer a service provider for this newspaper, and we will not be held accountable for the words and behaviour of said entities.

Anyone wishing to contact the newspaper should speak with the office or the editor directly, not through Alex Holder Snr or AH Communications.

Police should be doing a thorough investigation in the matter. In the event the guy is lying, the police should arrest him and charge him for making a false report. With all this gun play going on, he is adding panic to an already fearful situation.

Don't know who to trust!

I smell a rata. Now Caribarena, conveniently is concerned about justice and fairness and balance. WOW!

Like one contributor said, we still don't know anything and we are not assured that the IHI and all other AH articles were truthful.

Man to man is so unjust, don't know who to trust...

I applaud CA for acting to preserve the principles on which it was founded. I suggest that further steps be taken to investigate prior reports from AH Communications for truthfulness/cr edibility.

Caribarena has not 'enlightened' it's reading public on this issue. You have said nothing, just opted to keep the details out of everything.

I am delighted to find out that "Caribarena prides itself on reliably informing and educating our readers. Credibility, integrity, and willingness are just a few of the rocks within our foundation that we are building on, and we will not be associated with those that appear to jeopardize that"

In that connection I want to know what is the deal with the remaining articles in the IHI Matter. I hope that Caribarena is not saying that the series of articles is completed, because that would raise serious credibility issues.

I find it curious that the Lindquist report was never revealed to the public. Both parties have colluded to keep the People in the dark on this mattaer and now the only credible media outlet on the island seems to have been SILENCED or have joined the cover up.

Its a shame CA....your credibility takes a blow with this. Tanny Rose has been saying that it is a lie since day one, now he is proved correct. After regional and international media support groups reported on this issue. Was this a figment of one's imagination? Was someone seeking attention or sympathy? Does this call all other AH articles into question....SMH
