Tourism and paradise under the tropics then gave way to politics, and from that moment on the bilateral conflict has occupied practically the entire visual horizon in the U.S. media. Even though from the outset the press and television did not articulate a totally negative discourse about Cuba and its leadership, the truth is that since the early 1960s a Cuban reality made of dubious or excessive executions of war criminals of the Batista dictatorship, which had committed bloody acts generally clouded by the great mass media, was presented to the public.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, with the first desertions (D\u00edaz Lanz) and the internal class struggle, the idea of \u200b\u200bthe betrayed Revolution appeared, to which the Cold War codes were added a little later, ultimately supported by the strategic links that the Cuban system built with the Soviet Union. The island became a Soviet beachhead in the middle of the Caribbean, which was reinforced with the Bay of Pigs\/Playa Gir\u00f3n invasion and, above all, with the 1962 \u201cMissile Crisis\u201d.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_243064\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-243064\" style=\"width: 1280px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-243064\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Kennedy-1-1140x641.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-243064\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">President Kennedy during the Missile Crisis.

The prevailing perception underlined the idea that the Cuba of the time, after \u201cChe\u201d Guevara\u2019s fall in Bolivia, had become more responsible in the new Latin American context, in the understanding that the Andes would no longer be, as in the 1960s, the Sierra Maestra of Latin America.<\/p>\n<p>But it didn\u2019t last long. The Cuban military presence in Ethiopia and Angola paralyzed this process and fed a quality of content where the labels of \u201cUSSR satellite\u201d were practically one of the fundamental recurrences of the press, with a fixity that would extend until the dissolution of the USSR in December 1991.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_243065\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-243065\" style=\"width: 1359px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-243065\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1359\" height=\"882\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1.jpg 1359w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1-1024x665.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1-768x498.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1-750x487.jpg 750w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Angola-1-1140x740.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1359px) 100vw, 1359px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-243065\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cuban troops in Angola.

The 1980s meant the coming to power of a neo-conservative team in the United States and implied, among other things, the alignment of the media with the figure of the president, a former Hollywood actor known for his talents as a great communicator and one of the most popular leaders of the 20th century in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>With a sophisticated public relations team headed by the golden boy Michael Deaver, the new U.S. administration developed a project of world hegemonic recomposition exercising, among other things, a task of monitoring and even controlling the media, responsible for the \u201cAmerican lack of will.\u201d This explained disasters such as the defeat in Viet Nam and the hostage crisis in Iran, one of the events that would put paid to Carter\u2019s re-election. \u201cThe war was lost by the domestic enemy, by ourselves\u201d was one of the mantras that later led to films like <em>Rambo<\/em>, a sublimation of the military defeat inflicted by the Vietcong and initiated, in fact, after the Tet Offensive (1968).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_243066\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-243066\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-243066\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Reagan-1-1140x641.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-243066\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">President Ronald Reagan (1980-1988).

In short, early on, the administration clearly played one of its cards: the fight for control of information and against leaks to the press, expressed in threats of legal proceedings against the media for publishing \u201cunauthorized\u201d material and in the dismissal of officials for leaking it.<\/p>\n<p>In this sense, during the invasion of Granada (1983) a new pattern was used: the monitored access of the media to the theater of operations and a rigorous information control to prevent recycling of Southeast Asia and thus try to win \u201cthe hearts and the minds\u201d of people. The move marked a historic change since the Civil War. Since then, correspondents have reported live and direct from the theater of operations. In that context, they did it in a limited way and guided by the military.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_243067\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-243067\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-243067\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1-1024x587.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1-768x440.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1-750x430.jpg 750w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Nicaragua-1-1140x654.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-243067\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Sandinistas\u2019 victory in Nicaragua (1979).

Its regional circumstances were the inheritance of the Sandinista victory in Nicaragua (1979), the guerrillas in El Salvador and the Central American conflict, faced during its classical times with the prism of bipolarity and externalism. In other words, the causes of the problem were located not in endogenous reasons \u2014 unequal distribution of wealth, poverty and marginality, repression and political assassinations, etc. \u2014 but in East-West logic. One of the slogans of the Cold War \u2014 which alluded to the Russian threat and had even led to the massive construction of nuclear shelters in the United States \u2014 dramatically changed its geographical location: from not being detained in its \u201cbackyard,\u201d communism was then, as the president himself announced, a two-hour flight from Texas.<\/p>\n<p>In that speech, Cuba was reaffirmed as the great surrogate of the \u201cRussian Bear\u201d and as a recurrence: \u201cgoing to the source\u201d \u2014 that is, a military invasion of its territory \u2014 came to be the way in

violence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the 1960s, the island became a Soviet \u201cbeachhead\u201d in the middle of the Caribbean, which was reinforced with the Bay of Pigs
