Venezuela Loses Press Freedom

One must wonder how the mainstream media can virtually ignore the end of freedom of speech in Venezuela and still contend that they are not biased.

From Babalu:

The Venezuelan freight train toward a castro-style totalitarian dictatorship is gaining momentum at a frightening pace with the closure and confiscation of one of the few remaining independent media voices in that country, RCTV, and where is the mainstream American and International media?

I know. They're covering the fascinating and important lives of Paris Hilton and Rosie O'Donnell.

Although liberal media bias is expected, the disturbing lack of official condemnation from the nations of the civilized world is a mystery. We should be seeing intense formal protests from the U.S., Britain, Canada, Australia, Mexico, the European Union and many others.

Inexplicably, the warranted flood of criticism of Hugo Chavez is not happening.
