AKA: Chavez: Inside the Coup
Summary: 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April 12th 2002 the world awoke to the news that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez had been removed from office and had been replaced by a new interim government.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. (Vitagraph Films)

Filmmakers go to Venezuela to make a documentary about Chavez, wind up in the shortest-lived coup in the history of South America. It's an interesting documentary that shows what different sectors of Venezuela think of Chavez's politics, how his government works and is a live document of the people's reactions to the coup, but most importantly it is one of the most vivid and eye-opening definitions of 'media-bias'. Recommended even if you know nothing about socialist Venezuela.

Really eye-opening documentary. Brilliantly made. Heartbreaking and inspiring and harrowing and enraging like only the truth can be.

Consistently engaging. However, I cannot help of think of the line from Heinlein's novel _Glory Road_: "To claim to 'respect' and even to 'love' the great mass with their yaps at one end and smelly feet at the other requires the fatuous, uncritical, saccharine, blind, sentimental slobbishness found in some nursery supervisors, most spaniel dogs, and all missionaries." Some young leftist is gonna yell at me for saying that, but, like Joe Bob Briggs says, this ain't Communist Russia
