ABSTRACT
Norma Martínez is host and co-producer of Informativo Pacifica, an international and Spanish language radio news program on KPFK, a Los Angeles, California, community radio station. Her program focuses on the struggles of labor, women, indigenous peoples and peace activists, including resistances to neoliberalism and militarism across the Americas. In Latin America we are seeing changes that I think are very difficult to see in the United States. In Argentina when the change in presidents happened about six years ago, there were protests, there were mobilizations and how they gave rise to a more progressive political sector. We have seen important changes; one case the author wants to mention is that in Argentina, now there is a law according to the United Nations. It is called The Communications Law, that divides, that terminates the communications media monopolies. It divides [the media up into] three parts: the private media, the public media and the non-profit media.
