The truth divide

According to the news reports, Venezuelan strongman Chavez is either in critical condition after surgery in Cuba or is mending well and will soon be home. His family either rushed to his bedside or went for a scheduled visit to see him in Havana. Who knows. There is such a gap between the truth and what gets reported in Venezuela that it should be called Chavez Ravine. Still, it might be nice for the people of Venezuela to know if their leader will return or if he is on his death bed.

My guess is that Chavez is more ill than has been announced by the state radio but not as bad as what some of the other media are reporting. But, as I say, it is a guess and nothing more.
