Hm. Maybe I should ask @camilateleSUR ? Looks a lot like her, I promise I'm not just looking at the jacket

I understand the human toll involved. Our “awareness” of the situation will not “change” it. Bolivians, however, are aware since they’re living in it. The US via the CIA and its Bolivian assets will do its best to ensure any sort of resistance is tamed/neutralized.
More foreigners showing up to report now so if ya think you recognize someone..probably them now.
There's no press freedom here. Bolivians are only aware of what they see first hand but aren't receiving reports from other areas, it's been completely restricted. Press think they'll be kidnapped/murdered. The people have told us: the role of reporting, documentation is crucial.

In this era of social media, one need not have “press freedom” in order to know what’s going on. The intelligence-linked press will twist events to their viewpoint with propaganda. Besides, history shows peoples resistance occurred without the press; they need guns, not cameras.

The people stand ready to fight in the absence of press. They're doing it now.

The media was the single largest player in the coup and continues to be. Not the military, not the police, not any one right-wing lawmaker. The people here know that's why every list of demands, every cabildo, every statement, every speech, cites the necessity of press coverage.

Its for precisely that reason though that we should be critical of certain coverage. I appreciate and respect the work you do immensely, I just want people to keep Medeas background in mind when they view her coverage.
