New TV station begins broadcasts in Latin America

[dArKeR]

A new TV station backed by Venezuela's government began transmitting on Sunday in various countries across Latin America, carrying praise by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, American actor Danny Glover and others.
The Telesur network, which organizers call a Latin alternative to large media outlets like CNN, was being seen in Argentina, Uruguay, Bolivia, Brazil and Cuba as well as Venezuela, Chavez said.

"This is part of an awakening of our peoples," he said by phone to a televised inaugural ceremony in Caracas. Chavez called the channel a key step toward regional integration, with the sole purpose of "telling the truth."

1. Bravo! Hooray for Glover, Chavez, and of course Telesur...

it's always good to have different viewpoints, too bad our MSM doesn't understand that.
