And a step back for culture

May 25, 2004

According to today’s Tal Cual, The Venezuelan body in charge of culture CONAC approved 30 million bolivars (about $7,000 at the official rate of exchange) to web page aporrea to execute a project called “Program for the stimulus of radio phonic productions”. Aporrea has no projects of this nature, which was quickly explained away by someone at CONAC saying according to Tal Cual: “The name of the project was used to encompass alternative community media, among them, web pages”.


 Such progressive people!
