The freedom of expression gag seen today in Venezuela has been around for over ten years. An ambiguous and voracious law from 2004 would establish censorship as a fundamental part of chavista philosophy for years to come.
We’ve been able to hang on for 19 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. Now, the difficulty level was raised abruptly with the global pandemic. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) cutting personnel to avoid closing shop. This is something we’re looking to avoid at all costs, and it seems we will. But your collaboration goes a long way in helping us weather the storm.
