Venezuela's state-owned media channel grants ownership to workers after right-wing legislator Henry Ramos insinuated a shift in ANTV’s editorial coverage.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro announced late Tuesday he will sign into law a decree to protect the employment of workers across the country through 2018. “The evil ones have won and those compatriots that believed that would be the solution ... reflect, come to your own conclusions, the concrete threats are here and they have only just begun,” Maduro said in reference to the opposition's coalition that has won two-thirds majority to the National Assembly in the Dec. 6 legislative elections.
Maduro sent a message to National Assembly employees, reminding them he is a laborer himself and that since former President Hugo Chavez took office the stability of workers has been relentlessly defended. “The right-wing will not undermine our homeland in spite of having won the National Assembly. The right-wing will not be able to undermine the independence of Venezuela and the social rights of the people,” he said.
Executive control over Venezuela’s state-owned media channel ANTV will be transferred to the hands of workers, President of the National Assembly Diosdado Cabello announced on Tuesday. "Starting right now, you will be your own bosses,” Cabello announced, in what is seen by many as a countermeasure to threats by right-wing lawmakers to displace the public station with private media outlets. The announcement comes as right-wing legislator Henry Ramos insinuated during an interview with CNN Spanish that there would be a shift in ANTV’s editorial coverage.
Sometimes described as Venezuela's version of CSPAN, ANTV is a public broadcaster that largely focuses on coverage of the country’s National Assembly. Meanwhile, workers from the National Telecommunications Commission (Conatel) responded to the threats by issuing a press release on Tuesday. “Moving forward, we demand those who are in control of the National Assembly to respect the Venezuelan people, their institutions, workers, and maintain dialogue and democratic debate,” the statement read.
ANALYSIS: The Causes and Consequences of Venezuelan Election Results The Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD) won a ‘supermajority’ in the Venzuelan National Assembly elections on Sunday, after a fierce legislative election. Many of the MUD's member parties have long disagreed on a variety of policy issues. Beyond vowing to seek to remove President Nicolas Maduro from office, the MUD presented few solid policy proposals ahead of Sunday's vote.
