Morris refused US visa because of 'terrorist activities' http://colombiareports.com/colombia-news/news/10711-morris-refused-us-visa-because-of-terrorist-activities.html
Colombian journalist Hollman Morris is not allowed to enter the United States because the State Department consideres Morris "permanently ineligible for a visa under the "Terrorist activities" section of the USA Patriot Act,"
Morris, maker of independent television program Contravia, is a critic of the government of Alvaro Uribe and has often denounced ties between right-wing paramilitary death squads and political allies of the president.According to Morris, Colombia's intelligence agency DAS was involved in a smear campaign against him, which included efforts to have the journalist's U.S. visa denied.
