Response to Original message
1. This cable describes the situation quite well indeed
1. Globovision and El Nacional are radically anti-govt
2. They turn to the US embassy to get support

But I believe you should add to your conclusion two facts as a counterpart:
1. The government manages to get directors fired in those media and to tone them down
2. The government organizes the commercial boycott of their only normal income source: advertising
