Yes. In Venezuela, we have but one channel, even on cable. And programming is all controlled personally by Hugo Chavez.

Beyond ludicrous... They pull the Simpsons, yet Chavez gets spew his militaristic, violent comments at any time of day. I can remember him AT LEAST cussing on national tv at restricted hours (when children are potentially watching). Perhaps the most offensive was when he told his then wife on national Tv: "Marisabel, wait 'till I get home and I'll give you yours..." Yes, disgusting. Venezuelan reality...

"The Simpsons has been dropped from morning TV in Venezuela after being deemed unsuitable for children - and has been replaced by Baywatch." Baywatch is considered more suitable for children?

Installing is Easy!
