US to Admit Cuban Journalists
-----------------------------



The State Department has reversed a controversial decision to deny two
Cuban journalists entry to the United States. International media groups
had denounced the decision to bar Tomás Granados Jiménez and Ilsa
Rodríguez Santana, a married couple who cover the UN for Cuba’s state
news agency. The pair were refused entry when they recently tried to
return to New York from a trip to Cuba.
