Censored Ad Update
The CNE ordered TV stations to take off the air this 30-second spot of Leopoldo Lopez’s political party Voluntad Popular, titled “Security is the Way”. Here’s the ad in question:
The Electoral authority has already shut down other ads, including the series made by NGO Ciudadania Activa about the “ventajismo” of using State resources for the Chavez campaign. And let’s not forget the whole “Gorragate” affair.
But the constant cadenas? And the abuse by the State Media System? Bien, gracias.
Not that our everyday reality is completely different of what this spot is trying to present…
Leopoldo Lopez talked about this ad and the CNE’s decision to Ultimas Noticias.
