It's not me that is fixated on the name, it is the article that goes out of its way to assign responsibility "specifically" to the CIA - it's right in the title

It's not me that is fixated on the name, it is the article that goes out of its way to assign responsibility "specifically" to the CIA - it's right in the title and in the first paragraph!
And this produce what is objectively an historical howler right at the start. As the other commenter said, maybe it's just sloppy editing. But seems pretty click baity to me.
- Convolutional 3y ago> And this produce what is objectively an historical howler right at the start. What howler? You quote it ascribing actions to the Guatemalan dictatorship in the 1930s which is accurate. Then you claim the piece says the CIA was active in the 1930s, which it does not say anywhere.
- serallak 3y agoI've posted an excerpt from the start of the article at the start of this thread, you could check it. As it is written, it clearly seems to give the responsibility of the delay in publication to the CIA. The most charitable interpretation is "poor editing".
