Chavez rejects two cable channels

The Venezuelan government rejected two cable channels on March 5, 2010. According to the telecommunication agency, the channel RCTV Internacional failed to meet a deadline for registering the channel. The other channel RCTV Mundo did not meet some of the programming regulations and consequently they were rejected.
Marciel Granier president of RCTV, accused the agency of rejecting the channels under Chavez's orders. Granier believes that Chavez "does not want them to exist" because their channels express criticism about Chavez government according to the LA Times
