Chiquita, former United Fruit Company that committed many atrocities against Colombians in collaboration with the CIA, tries to apologize to a Twitter user.
They say "Since 2015, Chiquita has been under new ownership [...] taken extensive steps to become a new company, focused on sustainability and employee welfare.".
But in reality they still fund death squads in 2018. And this after they rebranded themselves as Chiquita!
Chiquita's tweet apologizing:
The Associated press article "Chiquita Brands faces new death squad charges in Colombia":

Read this article from Financial Times called "Rotten fruit", that gives a good account of the many atrocities committed against Colombians by United Fruit Company in collaboration with the CIA. Even from a MSM perspective it is very accurate.
