What I learned about the Bolivian elections
What I love about Latin America is that the difference between the facts and the coverage in the mainstream media is just hilarious.
Blogs and alternative media are always ready to point this out. Here’s a couple of points from Abiding in Bolivia’s round-up of reports on the Bolivian elections:
- Evo Morales threatens journalists with ethics and threatens political opposition with impartial rule of law
- Bloomberg: Morales tightens his communist grip on the economy by making Bolivia the fastest growing economy in Latin America.
