Going Off the Air in Venezuela

Hugo Chavez seems to be eliminating independent TV stations in Venezuela. Even his own supporters aren't too happy about it.

It's almost like he can't abide criticism!

Powerful dictators
Pull the plug on debaters.

    One of the commentors on the BBC article I read on this news said that people should get their priorities straight: the right to free speech is a much trivial right as compared with the right to life and security.

    *sigh*

    Really despicable anti-mind attitude.

    Of course, in real life, the lack of free speech does not lead to safety at all.
