Both are probably chosing the word purely for it's aliterative quality. The Huffington Post one is overwhelmingly in favour of the change in government, and is again using the word ironically. The Epoch Times uses the word in the URL, but not in the actual article. All things considered, it's not really a ringing condemnation from the international community.

I dont disagree that this isnt getting big play elsewhere because lets face it....there are MUCH bigger stories worldwide to begin with and Canada is not really big on any single countries cares.
But there are definately press members who will watch this thing unfold and report on it as it moves along...everywhere.
