Funny, I would have thought President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo would have been like the anti-Chávez, what with the chumminess between her and George W. Bush.

We’ve been able to hang on for 22 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) closing shop, something we’re looking to avoid at all costs. Your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
