Venezuela News and Views best Latino Blog
By Daniel Duquenal
15.12.04 | Venezuela News and Views has won its category! With 36.3% of the votes.
Time for a short victory speech.
Thanks
to all those who voted of course. I know that many of us made that
effort to represent through this blog all the Venezuelan blogs that try
to bring to the world a different view of Venezuela, to tell what is
going on here really: The Devil's excrement and Vcrisis in particular who have not faltered, even after the somber night of
August 15. If they had not continued I do not know if I would still be
writing. Thanks also to VenezuelaToday
for providing the best collection of links to Venezuela and
facilitating the research that has to be done to write so extensively.
All Venezuelan bloggers should be very indebted to this portal who is UNIQUE in offering all links from both sides of the divide.
Even
if we were the least voted of all the categories, it is a start and
let's hope that this will help promote ALL of our blogs outside of
Venezuela, and entice more bloggers to join the good fight. We need all
what we can to counter the official disinformation that the Chavez
regime distributes, when not outwardly helped by certain newspapers who
gobble the trash. I would like to point one in particular: The New York
Times whose twisting of facts on Venezuela has left more than one
wondering about what else the NYT is twisting.
With the new
restrictions to information that are being installed in Venezuela,
blogs are sure to become an important source of real information. And
perhaps destined to make history. All non Venezuelans that are still
reading these lines, remember, you read it here first.
