Venezuela Dismisses Initiative for U.S. Government TV and Radio in Venezuela

Caracas, Venezuela, July 20, 2005—Venezuela’s Ambassador to the U.S. dismissed a proposal that passed the U.S. House of Representatives today, to allow the U.S. “to initiate radio and television broadcasts that will provide a consistently accurate, objective, and comprehensive source of news to Venezuela.” The initiative, which is an amendment to the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 2005, was proposed by the Republican Florida representative Connie Mack and passed the House today by voice vote. It still has to pass the U.S. Senate.

LOL!!!!!!

fair and balanced news from the U.S. to Venezuela in Fox News style reporting....what a (sick) joke!!!!

A message to the U.S. Government :


Take a look at Venevision, Globovision, and Univision...and then understand that Venezuela is a free society and has freedom of the press. All of these channels are already vehemently anti-Chavez.

No freedom of dissent? The rich business community is openly confronting Chavez.

Take a look at Venezuela's constitution here:

and realise that the Venezuelan society is a free one.

One last message to the U.S. government: Don't interfere with Venezuelan affairs!!!

On July 24, a new South American broadcasting network will start its programs!!

Telesur (television of the south) will air Latin views into South America!

Nice to see U.S. influence fading in South America!

Hasta la Victoria siempre! :-)
