On Sunday, August 30, around 5:30 PM, Jefferson Michel Casseus, the popular journalist from National Television of Haiti (TNH) died in a terrible car accident. He was travelling in a green Suzuki with another journalist Jhonson Baptiste, a contributing editor of Daily Le Nouvelliste and one woman whose identity is unknown. The woman and Baptiste both died on the spot. Casseus was seriously injured. Initially, he was taken to 'Doctors Without Borders Hospital' in Carrefour, but was later shifted to the 'Hospital of the State University of Haiti' (HUEH). The doctors at the HUEH were on strike. Without considering his condition, they left him unattended on the hospital floor for almost two hours and he died. Casseus's final words were "I am choking". The other car to the accident was a Honda Accord, damaged to a lesser extent, was carrying back four people from the beach-- one of its passengers died on the spot.

Michel Martelly interview with journalists TV5 Monde, France
Here is a picture of the famous interview that Haitian President Michel Martelly gave to three journalists of TV5 Monde in France in November, 2014. This interview actually received lots of comments from Haitians both inside and outside of the country.
One his recent short tour of France, Haitian President Michel Martelly spoke with journalists from famed TV5 Monde who grilled him on topics from abortion in Haiti, to the possibility of him running the Caribbean country by executive decree. On the former, Martelly addressed the concerns of Deside Fanm (Women Decided) and Solidarity of Haitian Women (SOFA) which put forward that abortion is a matter of choice. On the latter issue, the potentially negative backlash of his ruling by executive decree was discussed with human rights defense organizations who feel the thought is grossly undemocratic.
Dadio Television Nationale D'Haiti pulled the plug on Senator Moise Jean-Charles
During a convocation of Prime Minister Laurent Lamothe on May 4th, 2013, where he responded to a Senate invitation to answer questions related to some fundings in question. the National Radio Television (RTNH), that was assuring the coverage at the time suddenly interrupted the coverage as Senator Moise Jean-Charles.
The questions remain and as to what caused that interruption and why it only took place during the intervention of Senator Moise Jean-Charles who has been in opposition of the current government. Several Senators denounced the action of Haiti National Radio Television (RTNH) immediately and demanded an investigation of the incident.
Until an investigation determines the nature of the technical failure by National Radio Television (RTNH) during the Senator Moïse Jean-Charles intervention, some people remain suspicious.
