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.

42. Benicio Del Toro Zone: Media
Puerto Ricans' peculiar circumstances make us completely different fromother latin americans. We don't need a passport or a green card.

'This Is My Life'
The Miami Herald - El Nuevo Herald
As told to Gabriel de Lerma
Translated by Front Man
October 10, 1997
Benicio Del Toro does not see himself as Superman - Part Three
I frequently travel to Puerto Rico. We Puerto Ricans are almost North Americans, since we have the opportunity of traveling in and out of The United States as we please. Puerto Ricans' peculiar circumstances make us completely different from other Latin Americans. We don't need a passport or a green card. We can work in the United States without problems. We come to The States and go back to Puerto Rico at will. Even so, many Puerto Ricans go back to Puerto Rico and stay there, where the film industry is limited. If what happened in Cuba had happened in Puerto Rico, I would also be here now. But, most likely, there would be more people from Puerto Rico involved in the film industry. Instead, there are more Cubans and Mexicans in film. Logically, I feel a great responsibility for being a Latino actor working in Hollywood. For now, though, I am only an actor and can not feel any type of responsibility for the roles I play. My only responsibility is to do my job well. But if I were a director or a movie producer, my responsibilities would be greater. The only thing that I ask is not to be solely seen as a Latino actor. The fact that my name is Benicio Del Toro should not imply that I must be thought of only as a Hispanic actor. Logically, I don't have a problem with playing Latino characters, and would play them more frequently if they were better written.

Profile and Annual Report 2002
II - Strategic Objectives
The goal of Journalists Against Corruption (PFC) is to strengthen Latin American democratization processes that have been weakened and jeopardized since their birth because of systemic corruption. PFC promotes, facilitates, and supports watchdog journalism, a crucial deterrent to corruption, and in doing so contributes to public awareness and new values that do not tolerate it. Through its support of journalists and media that investigate and report on corruption and its use of their reports, PFC aims to catalyze broad media and public opposition against corruption by generating greater understanding of the phenomenon, of its essence and workings, and of its costs and consequences for individuals and society as a whole. Such intolerance can result in enhanced public demands for institutional change guaranteeing government transparency, accountability and responsiveness, as well as in new moral standards in other sectors of society. To encourage and facilitate enhanced media coverage of corruption and anti-corruption initiatives in Latin America by providing them investigative assistance. To increase local and cross border investigative cooperation, contact and networking among Latin American journalists who report on corruption.

A Historical Review By Frank del Olmo I have been asked to focus this essay on the long, unresolved and perhaps unresolvable controversy over the use of the terms Hispanic and Latino among the 35 million-plus people of Latin-American origin who live in this country. As well, I have been asked to address an even older controversy over a third term, Chicano. Of course, these disparate folks already used many different terms to refer to themselves and their compatriots of Latin-American origin, such as Boricua, Cubano, Mexicano, Tejano and Chicano. So little wonder that the imposition of the official term Hispanic spawned controversy almost immediately.

    University Students Publish Book Depicting Experiences of Latin American Immigrants in Princeton, New Jersey
    Princeton, N.J. Eighty students at Princeton University have contributed to the publication of Latin American Princeton/Princeton latinoamericano, a book that presents the lives of Latin Americans in Princeton through oral histories, interviews with public leaders, and official statistics. It is a printed record of experiences for the rapidly growing Latin American community of Princeton and an invitation to those outside that community to learn more about it. The volume is divided into two parts. The first, entitled "Sociological Perspectives on Latinos in Princeton," is a joint research project conducted in the spring of 1997 by Princeton undergraduates enrolled in Professor Miguel Centeno's course, "The Sociology of Latinos in the United States. " In an effort to relate the course materials to local conditions, students were encouraged in their final projects to explore a wide range of topics regarding Latin Americans in the Princeton area, which were then compiled into a composite report published in this volume.

    Rockefeller Foundation Awards Fellowship in the Humanities to Stony Brook University
    Stony Brook University's Latin American and Caribbean Studies Center (LACS) received today the Rockefeller Foundation Residential Fellowship in the Humanities, the first ever Rockefeller Foundation grant for the University.  Stony Brook is one of nine institutions in North and South America chosen as residency sites for the humanities fellowships.  
    The LACS program will bring in a total of 8 visiting post-doctoral fellows over the next four years to study an interdisciplinary project around the theme "Durable Inequalities in Latin American Histories, Societies, Cultures." The project will address the problem of the resilience of social systems as well as the construction of race, gender, and ethnicity.  Fellows will come from all manner of fields – history, sociology, literature, cultural and media studies, politics, economics, and education. The Foundation will provide up to $325,000 over the course of four years. "This represents a tremendous boost not only for LACS, but also for humanities at Stony Brook, and the University as a whole," said Stony Brook University President Shirley Strum Kenny. "Our vision is to bring in a wave of committed Latin American scholars to the University, across a variety of disciplines."

Between July and October 2002, the Pew Research Centre for People and the Press commissioned national surveys in 44 countries, 10 of them in Africa, including South Africa. The sample, more than 38 000 interviews, is a tiny slice of the world's six billion people, but reveals much about our shared concerns. When the report was released this month in Washington, the headlines were of rising anti-Americanism, not just in the Middle East but everywhere, including Canada, Germany and France. Africans were the most positive, with 34% viewing the US "most favourably".

    (formerly Business Data Services, Inc.) E-commerce site prepares for explosive Internet usage
    among U.S. Hispanics and Latin Americans Fiera.com (www.fiera.com) is the first electronic commerce site focused on serving Latin Americans and U.S. Hispanics. The key components of Fiera's business strategy are alliances with prominent local media, a seasoned senior management team with vast experience in the marketing and distribution of products in Latin America, time-sensitive aggressive price promotions, and first class customer service. Fiera has also introduced a proprietary logistics system which will allow it to ship products from local in-country warehouses and shorten typical e-commerce delivery times dramatically versus U.S. based e-commerce providers. In alliance with top providers operating throughout the region, like TechData and Visa International, Fiera.com has built a strong proprietary logistics and product delivery system. The system allows Fiera.com to reduce the consumers' final costs by 15 to 30 percent, as compared to local retailers. The company delivers merchandise door to door within 4-6 business days in the markets where it operates. Fiera e-shopping is backed by a customer satisfaction guarantee that rivals what is currently offered in the U.S., including a 15-day return policy. An expertly trained and motivated Spanish and Portuguese-speaking customer service staff supports the company's strong customer satisfaction promise. "We have built a very powerful business strategy and have joined forces with some of the best names in this industry to carry it out," said Manuel Montero, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.
