In the 1970s and 1980s, revolutionary wars were burning in Central American countries, and many American journalists, so-called field correspondents, were just sitting in big hotels and distributing news based on hearsay, and were unable to discover the truth at all.

Marcel Jazy: I like you people, but you are sentimental shits! You fall in love with the poets; the poets fall in love with the Marxists; the Marxists fall in love with themselves. The country falls in love with the rhetoric, and in the end we are stuck with tyrants.
Woman in refugee camp: [looking at picture of dead Alex Grazier on TV] Did you know the man who was killed?
Claire: [she nods 'yes']
Woman in refugee camp: Fifty thousand Nicaraguans have died and now a Yankee. Perhaps now America will be outraged at what has happened here.
Claire: Perhaps they will.
Woman in refugee camp: Maybe we should have killed an American journalist fifty years ago.
Russell Price: [At the rebels victory parade] What the hell are you doin' here?
Oates: It's a free country. I mean... it's free now anyway.
Oates: [Drinking from a cup] Nica libre - rum and coke and no ice. You want some?
Oates: [Price ignores him and Oates looks mildly concerned] You weren't gonna turn me in, are you?
Oates: [Price walks away without a word and Oates smiles and shouts] See ya in Thailand!
