says you didn't watch it... There is information in the doc that provides a contrast though factual proof of certain events critical for the debate. YOU... YOU post fucking from sources which refer to Chavez as Thugo and bitch about not wanting to review material presented from a pro-chavez angle... Thanks yet again for justifying my opinion of you.
The documentary isn't factual, Amnesty International doesn't view as factual because Chavez provided most of the tape and money and the time line as shown in the video isn't correct.
Have you noticed there has been no investigation into the Bridge shootings in Caracas.
This a documentary that uses Truthiness, It is nothing more than propaganda.
Why would I want to waste my time watching a propaganda video of a known killer. Look into his first coup.
He is no angel.
Your sources also quoted Cuba as a democracy. nice.
Also The links above are from the same sources you quoted.
You argue making fun of Hugo's name but you constantly make fun of GWB as do your sources. I was merely pointing out that there were huge anti-Chavez rallies that couldn't get access to down town Caracas. BTW Caracas is where Hugo shot at protesters.
Here is a documentary from the other side.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3378761249364089950&q=radiografia+de+una+mentiraThere are many other details, like using for the documentary images of Chavez’ supporters from the year 2000, at the height of his popularity in order to show the support for him, or showing tanks mobilized by Chavez himself against the people implying they were part of the coup against Chavez instead, implying the opposition march was armed, showing scenes from events that took place three months later, when Chavez’ Bolivarian circles were threatening residential areas and showing people meeting to see how they would defend themselves, but were presented as meeting organizing the “attack” on the Presidential Palace on April 11th.. Finally two facts should be pointed out. The main “witness” against the private TV channels shown in the movies is none other than Andres Izarra, who is presented as a sort of an impartial observer. Izarra became in fact “marketer” of the movie as he was sent to the US to be the Communications Officer of the Venezuelan Embassy, where he helped created the Venezuelan Information Office (VIO) a propaganda and lobbying group for the Venezuelan Government in the US. He was later named Minister of Information and more recently President of Chavez' international TV channel Telesur.
Additionally, the authors of the documentary tell a romantic tale of “just happening” to be here that day taping the documentarythemselves, but as the image from that film shows below, you can see the image of the person actually taping the movie in a mirror and is neither of the authors of the documentary as claimed. In fact it is a short, sort of overweight Venezuelan. There are many more indicators that it was in fact footage from the Government that was turned over to the Irish cinematographoers to work with.
It is nice that you argue me and not the facts.

VENEZUELA Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci (f)
Adolfo Martínez Barrios (m)
Other members of their family
Human rights defender Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci and her husband,
Adolfo Martínez Barrios, were victims of an assassination attempt by unknown
assailants in the State of Guárico on 21 April. They currently have no official
protection or security and Amnesty International is concerned for their safety
and that of their family. The attack appears to be linked to Maria del Rosario
Guerrero Galluci’s accusations of human rights violations by the police in the
State of Guárico.
The attackers shot at Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci and then, as her
husband attempted to drive her to hospital, they were followed and shot at with
a sub-machine gun. Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci was first shot in the
face. She received three other shots in the thorax, in the right arm and in the
stomach.
Her husband was also shot in three places, in the thorax, the left leg and the
left arm. Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci's wounds were apparently so
serious that she was transported to a hospital in the capital Caracas. Having
recovered from her wounds she first reported the attack to the Cuerpo de
Investigaciones Científicas Penales y Criminalísticas (Criminal Investigations
Unit) on 3 May and she then later also informed the Attorney General. To
Amnesty International's knowledge no investigation into the attack is being
carried out.
Following the attack Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci was initially offered
protection by the State. However, she was told she would have to pay for all
costs incurred by the security agents, including food and lodging. As Maria del
Rosario Guerrero Galluci does not have the economic means to do this, she is
now without official protection.
Maria del Rosario Guerrero Galluci is now living alone in a hotel in Caracas,
as she does not want to endanger family members by staying with them. Her
husband, Adolfo Martínez Barrios, remains in the State of Anzoátegui where he
too is seeking protection. Both are awaiting further treatment for the wounds
they sustained in the attack.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Human rights defenders, victims of human rights violations, and their relatives
are frequently subjected to attacks and intimidation. Despite this, they are
almost never granted adequate or effective protection by the State. Venezuelan
human rights organizations have documented over 100 police killings in Guárico
State in recent years. In the vast majority of these cases the authorities
have not investigated the complaints and the perpetrators have not been brought
to justice. Many Venezuelan states have a similar history of police abuse.
