In a nation where there is no freedom of the press, the only reporting from the regime consists of lies and deception. Maduro expects the world’s media to base their reporting on those lies and deceptions coming from the government-controlled media.
Maduro’s accusation calling those news outlets psychological war machines that impose their views and control minds is what the Venezuela’s regime has done for the past 15 years and continues doing today.
The truth is that the Bolivarian Revolution started by the late Hugo Chávez waged a war against the free media in Venezuela, starting with the closing of Radio Caracas TV. On May 2007,
the Government of Venezuela decided not to renew RCTV's broadcast concession for what it said was the station's role in the 2002 coup which briefly overthrew Venezuela's president Hugo Chavez. Since the closing of Radio Caracas, the regime has committed arbitrary closing of hundreds of adio stations and newspapers in Venezuela
Today all of the TV stations operating in Venezuela are controlled by this government. Only a few newspapers remain independent from the regime’s control. El Nacional is one of them.
The Venezuelan free press and independent journalists have done a remarkable and commendable job to keep the Venezuelan people and the people of the world informed about the tragedy that Venezuela endures today under Nicolás Maduro.
