The real story may be significantly less daring. The mainstream media’s heroic rescue narrative is being contradicted by claims that a $20-million ransom payment was made. http://www.truthdig.com/eartotheground/item/20080709_the_real_operation_to_rescue_ingrid_betancourt/ Copyright © 2008 Truthdig, L.L.C.
