Not a Good Day for Cuban Propaganda

Mairelys Cuevas Gomez, the managing editor of Castro's official newspaper Granma, has defected to the U.S.

According to Cafe Fuerte, Cuevas Gomez fled during a recent trip to Mexico, where she made her way to the U.S. border and asked for the refugee protections granted to Cuban nationals under the Cuban Adjustment Act.

She is now residing in Miami.

Granma is the main source of the Cuban dictatorship's official propaganda.
