Hunger Strike Over

Hidden in page 14A, and not even posted in its website, is this Miami Herald snippet on Guillermo Fariñas ending his hunger strike:

HAVANA - A Cuban dissident journalist has agreed to be fed intravenously after an eight-day hunger strike left him in critical condition, a family member told AFP on Thursday.

Guillermo Fariñas, who heads the outlawed Cubanacan news agency, had called the hunger strike to protest the communist regime's censorship of the Internet.

Too bad the MSM didn't jump on this. Unfortunately, I don't see any impact being made by Fariñas' noble and brave act.
