M.I.A. goes on a tirade against New York Times

M.I.A. has gone out on the attack on Twitter against the New York Times to make Sri Lanka the #1 destination to visit in 2010. The New York Times releases it’s annual article on tourism for 2010 and listed Sri Lanka on the top spot. M.I.A. went on a tirade criticizing this decision and posting graphic pictures of death and torture of Tamil civilians. Click below to read the Twitter rant. We previously agreed with the Sri Lanka choice on the blog, because we remember how lovely it was, but we can understand where she is coming from. An oppressive government should not get tourist dollars without the consideration of it’s humanitarian atrocities.
