You are so right! I try to get the news briefs on Univision whenever I can and there is quite a difference--especially in the 'slant' of the story! However, I have not had the opportunity in the last couple of weeks to really do some searching for differenct perspectives on current events so I missed a lot of the information about Venezuela. I will try to catch up this week if possible!

After a while those three were no longer being reported so I gues everything is "alright". Stay tune for the 11 PM update! But first a commercial message! :)
