THOSE Raul Castro CHANGES ARE JUST A SMOKE SCREEN TO SAVE FACE AND TO BUY THE CASTRO FAMILY OLIGARCHY MAFIA MORE TIME TO CEMENT THEIR ECONOMIC EMPIRE IN THE POST-CASTRO CUBA ALONG WITH THEIR THUGS! THE NEWS TRIBUNE: Longtime editors out at Cuban Catholic magazine - by Andrea Rodriguez HAVANA — The top two editors of the Cuban Roman Catholic Churchs influential magazine Espacio Laical are no longer working for what is one of the few independent media outlets on the island, the publication and one of the editors said Wednesday. Espacio Laical is a rare local source of news and commentary that is not controlled by the government or the Communist Party, and in recent years it has published a number of articles with tough analyses of President Raul Castros economic and social reforms. A statement from the magazine said editor Roberto Veiga and co-editor Lenier Gonzalez submitted their resignation May 2, but it was only recently accepted. Espacio Laical will continue forward with a new team, said the statement, signed by magazine director Gustavo Andujar. It will have its defenders and detractors, just like now, though criticisms and praise will not necessarily have the same content or come from the same groups as now. Gonzalez confirmed to The Associated Press that the two had resigned. He did not offer details, but said they intended to issue a letter with more information. Word of their departure appeared previously on Cuban exile websites that suggested the two had been dismissed. Veiga and Gonzalez had been at the editorial helm of Espacio Laical for about a decade and began to take on more influence in recent years as Castro began the reforms.
