      None of those sites showed that delivery services closed at 7 pm ast weekend during mothers day weekend. And quarantine is extended till june 7 based on status’s i see on whatsapp friendlist but those sites dont mention it. They slow. Prefer your website MG. You faster and better than them

      Thanks Paul and Richard for posting those links. Clearly Colombia Report can not be trusted.

    3. Just because it’s negative doesn’t mean it’s not true. And isn’t that the hallmark of journalism? The only thing that matters?

    4. Simon May 14, 2020

      The site mainly covers the low-down, dirty world of Colombian politics, which is why some may find it “depressing”. But that doesn’t mean it’s not good journalism. News reporting should pay no regard to “balance”; telling the truth – as far as that is possible – is all that really matters.

    5. Loren Moss May 13, 2020

      Thanks for the kind mention of Finance Colombia.

    6. IMHO just saying statistics are unreliable and stopping coverage is not what most news organizations would do.
