The
Revolution Will Not Be Televised - Kim Bartley & Donnacha O'Brian
(2003)
On April 12th 2002 the world awoke to the news that Venezuelan President
Hugo Chavez had been removed from office and had been replaced by
a new interim government. What had in fact taken place was the first
Latin American coup of the 21st century, and the world's first media
coup... This is one of the most important documentaries ever made
(along with BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE) because it highlights the U.S.
State Department/CIA overthrow of democratically elected, wildly
popular, progressive Venezuelan president, Hugo Chavez and the corporate
media complicity in the manipulation of these events. A must see
when you can. Find a way. www.chavezthefilm.com
