Softselling Third World Thugs II

Notice this rather strange AP posting. First the story...

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Venezuela's oldest private television station was pushed off the air as President Hugo Chavez's government replaced the popular opposition- aligned network with a new state-funded channel on Monday.

Radio Caracas Television shut down just before midnight Sunday as its broadcast license expired. Chavez refused to renew its license, accusing the channel of "subversive" activities.


And so what's the headline for this piece...
Chavez Launches New Venezuela TV Station

But then this has happened before has it not.
