Focusing on the reaction within Venezuela when Chavez is interesting. Broadening the scope of this article to include what neighboring countries in the region think might have given the article more depth.

This is a generally good report. It contains plenty of real, attributed sources and a generally good set of facts. It seems to try to avoid strident partisan comment for the most part.

This is an important story that this piece does not do justice to. While it is nice to get the 'person on the street' perspective, that should be complimented with more factual information than the piece provides. I also felt the piece had a bit of an anti-Chavez slant in it's vocabulary, structure, and choice of interviewees.

This story has some good insights, but leaves something out to dry. Does seem to have a anti-Chavez stance, but the part about Jewish man getting a passport was worth the read.

What I get here is the optimism of the regular folk who feel that somehow they will be empowered in this, to me, obvious dictatorship. The Rich and the Jewish man seem worried. I suppose other "revolutions" of this genre give them good reason. I felt the article was fair, objective? no one has a crystal ball.
