Venezuela's independent broadcaster Globovision, which has (barely) survived repeated attempts by the Chavez administration to shut them down, is under challenge, again.
It is likely that this time they broke the letter of CNE (Election authority) rules, but to have Conatel (the National Telecommunication Commission) place them under challenge for political reasons does seem to rather exceed the authority of that agency.
After all, it's *not* like they broadcast an unflattering story about Russian and Venezuelan presidential bodyguards getting into a scuffle, or spread some elsewhere unreported rumor about a Russian delegation getting robbed in their Caracas hotel, or something...

My very fine Spanish-language Reader, and;
Daniel at Venezuela News and Views, and his Commenting Visitor(s).
Here's the unsubstantiated comment, for those that are interested:
"EN HOTEL DE CARACAS Robaron a militares rusos
El lunes se hospedó un equipo de oficiales del Alto Mando militar de Rusia en el hotel Eurobuilding.... Eran 22 personas. Les robaron los dólares y objetos personales."
