I am in Caracas working with Cadena Capriles.
And yesterday our work was interrupted by breaking news related with this company.
As you know, Journalism is a very risky business in Venezuela.
But journalism and journalists are playing a terrific watchdog role in this country.
Yesterday violent Chaves thugs, some of then journalists!, attacked a group of journalists of Cadena Capriles (publisher of ULTIMAS NOTICIAS, LIDER and EL MUNDO) that were in the streets of Caracas protesting against press freedom restrictions included in a new law.
More pictures here.
The 12 brutally injured journalists are today the heroes of this necessary profession.
And they deserve our gratitude.
Chapeau!
