Serious? ...Oh so we should wait for Cristina to finish off Clarin first so that when she finally gets 100% of the news media, we can trust that she'll do the same to her own media interests? ...thank you BAjo...so now you do admit that Telefe DID VIOLATE the 35% after all...it seems that I wasn't all that confused after all. And Telecentro & Villa MAnzana?
Let's do the maths again...80% of the media is either owned or friendly towards the K regime cause they receive government FUNDING$ directly & indirectly....and part of that same 80% was in clear breach of the ley de medios, but according to your rationale, only el grupo Clarin should be dismembered & sold off to K friendly empresarios? ONLY CLARIN has to have the Ley de Medios applied to it ...Not K TELEFE & others?
And when it is sold off to K friends...WILL IT FINALLY START RECEIVING PAUTA$ $$$ (ADVERTIZING REVENUE$) FROM THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT?
As I have said a million times before...I AGREE with most of the spirit of the Ley de Medios....but not when the K government ONLY applies it to the only media group that they don't have influence over. How can anyone in their right mind, be that naive to believe Cristina's line that for altruistic reasons, she's going to destroy Clarin so that you and me can breathe fresh unpolluted air? Especially when every human rights group in the planet is sounding the alarm bells about the K governments' attacks on press freedoms in Argentina? Who would be silly enough to believe Cristina? Especially when she gave Hugo Chavez (yes she did) the freedom of the press award a couple of years ago?
No matter what your past record is in terms of fighting for press freedoms, this time round you're fighting for Cristina's right to control ALL the news media.
Maybe for you & your business all is going well under this K government, but that doesn't mean that it's the same for the rest of the country.
