Cuba Launches Its Own Version of Wikipedia

From hotair.com On Tuesday, Cuba launched its own version of Wikipedia, called EcuRed, an online encyclopedia with user contributions. According to the homepage, the site “was born of the desire to create and disseminate knowledge of everyone for everyone; from Cuba and with the world.” Is it just me, or does it look like Fidel had the logo lifted from a recent political campaign here in the US?That’s not the only unoriginal thing about EcuRed, either. Its content mainly comprises a rehash of every anti-American meme uttered by Fidel, or for that matter, every anti-Bush attack on Democratic Underground, as the Daily Caller notes. There’s the Bush-is-a-drug-addict reference, the war-in-Afghanistan-an-excuse-for-world-domination reference, and of course the blockade-of-Cuba-cruel-and-inhuman statement. More here
