CNN's coverage of Cuba (not referring to the Carter visit in particular, but the associated coverage of Cuba itself) has been surprisingly positive - too positive, if anything. But, it has also been pretty ignorant. Just now the anchor expressed shock that "Carter's speech will be aired live and uncensored!"


Cuba obviously isn't a model of free speech and free press, far from it, but it isn't North Korea either.
