Cherine Badawi Interview: Linda Foley Newspaper GuIid David Bacon Venezuelan Coup Eric Quezada Seattle: Media Democracy vs. NAB S. Gleason and J. Lawson Clear Channel Takes Newsracks Tali Woodward Media, Oil, and Politics: Anatomy of the Venezuelan Coup by Eric Quezada "Venezuelan democracy is no longer threatened by a would-be dictator." [Chavez] "stepped down after the military intervened and handed power to a respected business leader." New York Times Editorial, April 13, 2002 The April 2002 attempted coup against president Hugo Chavez in Venezuela was widely applauded in U.S. corporate media editorials the day after the coup. In Venezuela itself, the mainstream media helped mobilize the anti-Chavez demonstrations which were used as the coup pretext. But a people's movement, with information and support from online and alternative news sources, ended up reversing the coup. In the months since, evidence is mounting of direct U.S. participation. In fact, it appears that the U.S. embassy in Caracas has been a busy meeting place of coup plotters and that the attempt to overthrow the democratically elected President Hugo Chavez and end the reform-minded government has been in the works since the Bush administration took office. A closer look at the events that led to the coup reads like a modern day saga of Allende or Arbenz, except that in this episode of U.S. intervention the media has taken on an unusually direct and destructive role.

"Helping" Latin America
"The Ministers reaffirm their commitment to a comprehensive and balanced FTAA that will most effectively foster economic growth, the reduction of poverty, development, and integration through trade liberalization." Declaration of the Ministers at their eighth meeting in Miami, November 20, 2003. Just because our government should look out for America’s interests first does not mean that, as Americans, we should be indifferent to the plight of the less fortunate in other nations. However, there’s the right kind of help and the wrong kind of help. There’s win-win and lose-lose. Unfortunately, government programs often provide the wrong kind of help. To see how our Latin American neighbors can truly prosper, let’s consider the source of our own prosperity. Why is it that in America, in just three generations, man managed to outstrip the world's total progress for six thousand years? How was it possible that our republic, with less than seven per cent of the earth's population, was able to create more wealth than all the other billions of people in the world?

Area StudiesThe Latin American Case
Thank you for this opportunity to exchange some ideas with such a distinguished group of educational leaders. What I thought I would do, rather than make a very prepared statement, is to go through some of the points you raised in your own comments and in the letter you addressed to us last year when you invited us to this conference. In particular, I would like to concentrate on the impact of globalization and the end of the cold war on international studies, and on the way societies look on each other academically. And I specifically wanted to try and raise three issues: (1) the shift from a political and security emphasis to an economic emphasis in the approach of societies looking at other societies; (2) within the economic field, the shift from the emphasis on development to an emphasis on pure or sheer economics; and (3) the question of area studies versus theory. A third shift has been, of course, the one from area studies to theory that Dean Bender mentioned. This has affected some countries more than others, and in Latin America and the United States, some areas of study more than others. We in Mexico perhaps have been blessedand I really hesitate using the word "blessed" but do so for the sake of argumentwith an explosion of area-study interest in the United States about Mexico. There is practically all the money in the world available in the United States for Mexican study centers, NAFTA study centers, immigration study centers in the United States, etc. Much of this, of course, has been taken away from the other Latin Americans. They're not particularly happy about this, but that's life.

Recent Economic Developments Modest growth returned to Latin America and the Caribbean in 2003 and regional GDP advanced by an average 1.3 percent, after a contraction of 0.6 percent in 2002. Argentina continued recovering rapidity from acute crisis. Brazil, Mexico and Uruguay shared in the broadening of economic recovery during the year. The Andean countries performed well, with Chile, Colombia and Peru recording growth above 3 percent. However, ongoing political uncertainties caused Venezuela's economy to deteriorate further during the first half of the year. Central America grew by an average 3.1 percent and looks set to sustain growth, thanks to the recently signed CAFTA agreement. The Caribbean lagged the recovery seen in the region as a whole due to continued fiscal difficulties and external challenges. The Dominican Republic experienced a crisis in the banking sector and in Jamaica the debt overhang hampered growth. While macro-economic management improved in Haiti, political instability escalated to culminate in a full political and humanitarian crisis in early 2004.

How to interest reporters and journalists PRESS "HOOKS"
"Hooks" are ideas that catch the eye of a reporter or talk show producer. For local media, the best ideas are personal stories from that community. There are also a number of ideas in the videos, and in the stories behind the videos, that might interest reporters. You may want to use one or more of the following ideas, or one may inspire you to come up with something else which relates more directly to your community. THE STORY BEHIND THE SERIES: Producer Dorothy Fadiman's own experience with a back-alley abortion was the motivation for this series . When she was a college student in 1962, she paid a stranger $600 cash, was blindfolded, taken to another location, and underwent an unanesthetized illegal abortion, performed by someone whose face she never saw. The procedure was followed by severe hemorrhaging and life threatening infections (peritonitis and septicemia). She was taken to the emergency room of the local hospital and admitted to the intensive care ward. Because she was in the hospital with a serious condition, the same doctor who had turned her away when she had begged for his help with a safe abortion, could now, legally, perform surgery necessary to save her life. RELIGION: Over the last decade, a vocal minority has promoted a concept that equates being religious with being anti-abortion. In truth, people of many faiths support a woman's right to choose

Peaceworks 50 Boundary Disputes in Latin America
Since the start of 2000, five Latin American boundary disputes between neighboring states have resulted in the use of force, and two others in its deployment. These incidents involved ten of the nineteen independent countries of South and Central America. In 1995, Ecuador and Peru went to war, resulting in more than a thousand deaths and injuries and significant economic loss. And yet, by international standards the Americas were comparatively free from interstate war during the twentieth century. Latin Americans for the most part do not fear aggression from their neighbors. They do not expect their countries to go to war with one another. The puzzle that this paper seeks to solve is how to explain the following unusual cluster of traits in the hemisphere:
  • Territorial, boundary, and other disputes endure. Interstate conflict over boundaries is relatively frequent. Disputes sometimes escalate to military conflict because states recurrently employ low levels of force to shape aspects of bilateral relations.

El Dia Que Me Quieras
(The Day You'll Love Me) Directed by Leandro Katz
Investigating death and the power of photography, EL DIA QUE ME QUIERAS is a meditation on the last picture taken of Che Guevara, as he lay dead on a table surrounded by his captors. After Guevara was captured and killed, in 1967, a wire photograph was transmitted from Bolivia. Its publication on October 10, 1967, was the culmination of a legendary search that had lasted two years. The photograph shows the corpse in a room full of military men. Taken by Freddy Alborta, it has been compared to Mantegna's Dead Christ and Rembrandt's The Anatomy Lesson of Professor Tulp.
