BBC News 24’s coverage of the death of Cuban military dictator Fidel Castro was beyond parody at some points this weekend. They had Richard Gott on as an “Expert on Cuba” without mentioning the role for which he is better known – as a KGB agent of influence and close colleague of Seumas Milne when he was at The Guardian. Dr Denise Baden was introduced as a Southampton University Professor in the Business School – viewers may have thought she was an academic expert. This was far too modest an introduction for Professor Baden…
She is also a musical impresario, writer and composer of “Fidel the Musical“. Mel Brooks, eat your heart out:
Sing-a-long “Viva Fidel Castro!, Viva la Revolucion!”
