:This seems to be the way Venezuala is going too.
Some individuals in our country who praise Chavez would have you believe differently.
I have been to Venezuela many times and the media is not really suppressed there.
Rather, Chavez is viewed as a hero of the poor and working class, which is why he continues to reign.
The kind of opposition that the private media do against Chavez is something that the US Corporate media would never even dream about doing to the US Government.
