PHTK protesters launched slaugans against journalist, radio show host Jean Monard Methelus and threw stones on the building, breaking several windows.

On Saturday, May 14, 216, the supporters of former President Martelly shouted slogans against journalist and radio show host Jean Monard Methelus and threw stones on the Radio Caraibes building, breaking several windows. It appears that PHTK, the Political Party of former President Michel Martelly, no longer believes in non-violent protests. The violent protest was led by Fednel Monchery of Repons Peyizan and Jude Lajoie of Platfom Viktwa-- both are defenders of Martelly's handpicked presidential candidate Jovenel Moses. PHTK has already disapproved the audit commission created by the provisional president Privert to check the credibility of the election. The agitators were demanding to continue the controversial election which is presently under the scanner of the verification commission. However, the demonstrators consider this delay caused by the audit/verification is in violation of the accord signed earlier, as it is nothing but a step to cancel the earlier election held in the Martelly regime.

Radio Haiti (later renamed to Radio Haiti-Inter) was the first independent radio station (1935) in Haiti. With the emergence of broadcasting media during the 1930s, many other radio stations which are still well known today were also created. Some of their names include: Radio Haiti (1935), Radio Caraïbes (1949), Radio Voix du Nord (1945), Radio Citadelle (1950), Radio Indépendance and Voix Évangélique. On October 12, 1977, by a decree issued during the regime of Jean Claude Duvalier, a controlling and regulatory body (National Council of Telecommunications or CONATEL) was created. Radios are a major part of Haitian Culture, about 97% of the population own a radio set and at least there are over 300 radio stations are believed to be operational. Attacks and threats are nothing new to the Haitian radio stations. In recent past, two journalists of Radio Haiti Inter (Jean Dominique, Jean-Claude Louissaint) were killed at the radio station on April 3, 2000. They were well known for their political commentary and investigative reporting. Maxime Seide, Dominique's bodyguard was killed on the previous Christmas day. Radio Haiti is one of the first stations to broadcast in Creole language rather than in French. Recently, Radio Télé Kiskeya was a target of gun attack and its two senior reporters, Liliane Pierre-Paul and Monard Metellus earned ire of the former President Martelly.

It was a pleasure knowing you. Mr. Jean Mary Jean Gabriel is an actor without borders. He teases and provokes.

Jean-Mary Gabriel Dies of Asthma Attack

Comedian Jean-Mary Gabriel practiced an uncensored brand of comedy. He said out loud what others only thought to themselves, especially about Haitian politics.

Gabriel died of an asthma attack after his Caribbean Morning radio broadcast with guest Colonel Himmler Rebu, Minister of Youth and Sports.

One tribute from a Haitian official, who knew him casually said, "The fool Gabriel will never change . . . . This wacky comedy dies . . . with him."

Here is Yvener, the main host at the popular Radio show on Rado Television Caraibes, Matin Caraibes.

The Team at Matin Caraibes is very dynamic. The Matin Caraibes team works in very good harmony, although it does not show it all the time in front of the public. The humor some times on the show can reach a point where the listening audience believes that the hosts are really fighting. However, this is not always the case. They ensure the success of the show that is considered today the most popular show in Haitian radio from Monday to Friday in the morning
