CENSORSHIP IN URUGUAY (1)
Censorship, exercises the power, whatever their origin, against any citizen to instill fear and force to obedience to laws, regulations, decrees and regulations, no missing conventions. and other high-level conchavos
Personally, I had the displeasure of being censored in the newspaper the day, then Editorial Secretary Jose Pereyra Gonzalez, who used to maul my notes. It was in 1959, and the cause, a salute to the Cuban Revolution, the day after the victory.
The second time was in RADIO CARVE when presenting a musical under the name of the Uruguayan industry in año1968 The cause was a campaign for the enactment of a law under the national artist ... and the phone call from a Uruguayan percussionist making a recommendation to the politicians. The call came on the air and 30 seconds later Mr. Paul Fontaine in the door of the study became the great censor.
The third time it happened in the old CX 42, RADIO VANGUARD, located in the building where there is still the Teatro Stella D'Italia, in 1969, the program was called "the anger" and consisted of songs, performers and composers, and political commentary Uruguayan-bit sympathetic, dedicated to sending more in the time, Jorge Pacheco Areco.
The censor at the time, was Alberto Reynal Pacific (ex CX 8) at that time confidant of the owners
As phonogram producer even before the dictatorship, three of my works were banned in 1970, an LP juanlacazino Ricardo oF Collazo-containing "Freedom" - and another of sanducero Aníbal Sampayo with Coastal in which included among others "View Pattern" and "Mr. President" and the simple version of the March of the anger of the Demons, a rock group of Belvedere.
I want to acknowledge that in other years, but was censored by my ex-wife, at some time, and make clear that one should not accept censorship wherever it comes, or come from any quarter.
censorship on TV has been a constant. A few years ago had an impact which occurred on Channel 10, in June 2002 - had risen CQC (Who Drop Drop) of Pergolini and Co, of its programming. The program produced in Argentina, was a good television product creative, well informed and very irreverent. CQC, reviewed the company from the nearby shore, with sharp criticism and a lot of irony. In short, "he teased" the power and ridiculed the authority. With the "breakers" that left the former Eastern president, did not take long to have him as white. And from that moment on, his envoys came to be harassed on the go, for the city. To show how great was the respect for others' ideas, the former Director of Sepredi himself, (a certain Sanchez), came to "box" to a journalist CQC, when the inmates in 2004. Canal authorities 10 (funny prebend of State) argued that the program had been "raised" because of low ratting. Or, in other words, the limited audience. ...
Then it was the turn Lanata. A Buenos Aires means "chanta" also tried to intervene, Eastern public opinion, from a program on Channel 12, exposing some sins, jealously hidden by most mídia that had already been reported by some independent vehicles ... and ran from mouth to mouth among the population.
The apology in this case was the low economic return that "the Lanata.Uy" got. A Revelio of pretexts, all was not of gross acts of private censorship. Who lives in this society, where many things happen, and everything is hidden, the use of censorship, is seen as a way to "put some order in the house" and reaffirms the idea that communicators are "subject "what the company wants or force. Official censorship for years, was incorporated as another tool of government. Applied in subtle ways: denying loans, cutting advertising guidelines, disqualifying and making recommendations to the foot of the ear ... until tearing their hair out when they claim that the criticisms are being endangered "against the Uruguayan lifestyle" ...
Meanwhile, Channel 10 will continue providing a wonderful cultural service, putting in several programs
weekly display "turn off and go" and Channel 12-free at last of that "such a big Lanata" ... will continue to illustrate the mediocrity of its programming, five days a week with the "educational" Mr. Tinelli ... spaces may lose some viewers, but win-with-security branch thank
