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.

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 […]
MINISTER PRASHAD HAS TURNED AROUND MINTIC
I would like to refer to Peeping Tom’s gossip column in the Kaieteur News dated April 17, 2008. Peeping Tom has the nerve to suggest that Minister Manniram Prashad has not have a good record of accomplishments since taking up the portfolio of the Tourism, Industry and Commerce Ministry. Peeping Tom further suggests that he […]
