This Wednesday, November 6, the first vice-president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello Rondón, this Wednesday, November 6, stressed that with the arrival of the Bolivarian Revolution, media abuse ended in the country due to misunderstood power.
“Here the politicians did what the media wanted them to do. The Bolivarian Revolution ended that,” he emphasized.
In that regard, he mentioned the case of former president Luis Herrera Campins, who in an active role as national president, the media sanctioned him “and he never came out, a head of state who owed something to someone. They were blackmailed.”
Cabello stated that when Miguel Enrique Otero talks about freedom of expression, he is actually referring to “freedom of pressure, which as a media owner, he needs to continue extorting money.
“If they talk about freedom of expression, it's theirs (opposition), not that of the people,” he said.
He recalled that in the face of the events of April 2002, it was the owners of the media who “staged the coup d'etat, they know it. They felt displaced by the mob of Hugo Chávez, by the mob of the People.”
In his Con El Mazo Dando program, issue number 502, he said that at the time the newspaper El Nazional, “was a school for good journalists, here is Carlos Javier, but also a school for extortionists.”
“It had been a while since I saw Carlos Javier, that gentleman, on April 13 (2002), with a single camera, just one, assured the transmission of Commander Chávez's arrival at the Miraflores Palace,” he said.
He highlighted that “the bugs (opponents) stole everything, all the cameras in a while (in the Miraflores Palace), Patricia Poleo you knew, you ran away. They took everything, they didn't take Bolívar's painting, because they hate Bolivar.”
He stressed that the smear campaign against the opposition member Edmundo González, due to not giving an interview to this media outlet, “is blackmail.”
