Mr Mander should apologize

Sir, Benedict Mander reports, May 9, that “a parade of rowdy and at times hysterical protesters yelled and whistled their way through central Caracas recently in a desperate attempt to be heard before Venezuela’s oldest and most popular television is silenced forever” and I just ask who is he to come and characterize the protesters as “hysterical”. Has he any idea of what it is to live in a country where all the judiciary and the military respond and obey blindly one who loves to be called “The Commander” and the Congress has 167 members that support him and none, zero, zilch against even though the whole world knows it is a highly polarized country, and where now they are going after the free media?

I truly think Mr Mander owes these protesters an apology.
