Freddie Kissoon the Intellectual gadfly’
MR. Ravi Dev has recently anointed Mr. Freddie Kissoon with the accolade of “intellectual gadfly” but perhaps he has in the Guyanese tradition, been too precipitate in applying the term since there are many individuals who regard themselves and are regarded by others as “intellectuals” when they are not conspicuous or display intellectual qualities. It […]
Freddie Kissoon seems to have gone wild in his imaginations.
IN his latest column, Mr. Kissoon claims that he has a Masters degree in Guyanese history.
While I do not doubt that Mr. Kissoon holds a Masters degree, it is certainly not a Masters in Guyanese history. I kindly ask Mr. Kissoon to tell the public at which University did he obtain his Masters in Guyanese […]
Educating Freddie Kissoon
IN Freddie Kissoon’s column, Kaieteur News, Sunday, May 4, 2008, he wrote of a dead donkey outside a fast food outlet on Vlissengen Road that had apparently been dead for 3 days and another on a highway leading to the CARICOM Secretariat that had been there for over a week. Freddie, for your and our […]
We must ignore Kissoon’s childish tantrum
I am not in favour of long drawn out attacks in the media on persons in our society. When there is a problem, we should study it carefully and objectively and then determine the root cause. In the analysis for the root cause, we will, more than likely, discover that it is either a flawed […]
Freddie Kissoon is no patriot
Despite his claims to the contrary, Freddie Kissoon is no patriot. At least not a patriot to Guyana. It appears as though he looks at movies and imagines in his shallow mind that he is like the hero of those movies, e.g. The Patriot, starring Mel Gibson.
I happen to know that Mr. Kissoon tried very […]
Putting Freddie Kissoon on warning
I AM tired of seeing Freddie Kissoon referring to me in his articles. In his response to Ravi Dev on 17 April in Stabroek News, this is what he wrote:
“Did Dev have in mind those who turned their backs on the country of their birth like Dr. Randy Persaud and his brother, Walter, […]
Freddie Kissoon lacks decorum
IN any society, particularly in the media, some level of decorum should be kept.
The “Kaieteur News” so called columnist, Mr. Fredrick Kissoon lacks this completely. I often wonder if he can appreciate what it means to be decent. It appears that he lacks morality. He is totally amoral.
His columns are mainly personal abuse on those […]
Guyana strives under democratic rule
WELL known newspaper columnist Freddie Kissoon (in several columns) has described the current PPP administration as fascist likening it to and often describing some features of PPP rule as worse than Burnhamism. I strongly disagree. There is no evidence to substantiate that thesis.
I hold no brief for the PPP. In fact, I think the […]
Shocked at Freddie Kissoon’s furious tirade
Educators are supposed to be objective about the works of their students and others. They don’t criticise others just for critique sake or comment on the writings of others just because they feel like doing so to show how much they know or how bright they are or to denigrate or belittle others. Respondents to […]
Freddie Kissoon’s lack of evidence continues
It is very disturbing that Freddie Kissoon’s columns are constantly filled with distortions, bias and most notably, lacking credible evidence, or at times, no evidence at all.
As such, I have decided today to further peruse Kissoon’s columns. I wrote a letter published in the Chronicle dated 03/30/08, pertaining to his column on 2/21/2008, which […]
