CBS is worried that otherwise normal left-wingers may be unfairly biased by the fact that their government is causing them to starve to death.

One hunts in vain for the S-word in the article. I guess it’s all due to Bad Luck.

Missing from the article: no mention of socialism.
No mention of the countries economic policies.
The word socialism does not appear in the article. Not once.

The word socialism does not appear in the article. Not once. By design, bias by omission. CBS News uses the tag line "Real News", they should use "Real biased News".

Almost every article on Venezuela treats what is happening there as almost a natural disaster. Just one of those things that can happen anywhere.

You know....you'd think if AOC, and bammy, and shummer and all the Lefties in this country who think they're ideas are so good would just volunteer to help Venezuela.
It's a perfect place to put their policies in place to see if they actually work.

The next time Nancy and her cronies want to use an air Force jet to fly off to some European junket, Trump should have the pilots instead fly to Venezuela. Make sure to have the camera’s rolling!

Politically, he's an exception here; he's still loyal to the government. He BETTER express total loyalty to Maduro, or he won't get any more meat supplies.

They all go to church now. Not because of God but because the little piece of communion bread. Its all they get. The church runs out of them because of people going through more than once and the priests voices are going hoarse saying body of Christ too much.

The worst of famines have less to do with natural phenomena than they have to do with political objectives concerning the distribution of limited resources to combat the famine.
And that is entirely a decision made at the executive level, or the absence of any means of communication between the persons who control the resources and the persons who are in need of the resources.

not THAT late, but nonetheless following in President Trump’s wake, with President Trump once again showing true world leadership like no other sine Ronald Reagan ...
