Argentina: Macri's Moves to Gut Media Law Spark Protests

  • 8 years ago
Rank-and-file journalists are up in arms over Argentine President Mauricio Macri's attempts to gut the country's Media Regulatory Agency. The agency oversees implementation of the 2009 Media Law, which seeks to democratize the press and reduce its concentration in a few hands. Critics charge that the conservative Clarin Group, Argentina's largest media conglomerate, is behind Macri's move. Laureano Ponce reports from Buenos Aires. teleSUR
