Through the Nicaraguan Telecommunications and Mail Institute (Telcor), President Daniel Ortega's regime canceled the broadcast license of three other radio stations, for a total of thirteen so far in August, the affected [stations] announced.
As the EFE news agency reported, the closed radio stations are Sky and La Guarachera, both owned by exiled journalist Anibal Toruño, and Radio San Carlos, from liberal former San Carlos Mayor Silvio Linarte, who is also in exile.
Both Sky, which aired in the Department (Province) of León, as well as La Guarachera, which covered Chinandega, both in northwestern Nicaragua, belonged to Toruño and his relatives, as well as Radio Darío, which was closed on the 12th after 73 years on the air.
Shades to come in this country.
I’m old enough to remember when Ortega and the Sandinistas were the darlings of the Left.
I’d much prefer we spend money assisting Central American countries than European countries like Ukraine. From Mexico on South these areas are still Third World economies and governments.
Cutting off opposition communications. That happened here during the coup of January 6. Trump was removed from all social media and the drive-by media refused to let him appear or make a speech. They heavily censor anything supporting Trump.
The plotters here in America seized the radio station in a slightly more modern manner. Communists are the same always.
Talk about a DICTATORSHIP!, killing off radio stations, no more freedom there - that place is gone.
(here in the freedom-loving West, we use Social Media to silence Enemies of the State, by the way)
Where are the Contras when you need them?
I recall watching a House Hunters International show on HGTV years ago about US expats moving to Nicaragua. It was such a charming old colonial architectural place where houses could be bought cheap. The cost of living was low, etc.
I thought to myself, who would be crazy enough to move to a communist country?
They should have shot Daniel Ortega many years ago
Gee that sounds like many of the northern states here in the US. Talk about a news/talk radio waste land. Music and sports. Entertainment for the retards….
They still are.
For one brief moment they rolled back the communists, but just partway, thanks to the idiot post election power sharing deal Carter promoted.
Sandies
Gotta hand it to em
They got legs
I had to deal with them in the 80s
Thoroughly corrupted pseudo Chè wannabes
I’m their 70s
Commies gotta commie.
Pastora and Calero are dead
The contras while well intended were corrupted
I was close enough to the action to be convinced that they were allowed to ship coke north on occasion for funding
CIA had no truck in the dope war like La Dea did
But I don’t think they invented and hooked LA on crack
Jamaican shower posse invented crack in Brooklyn first early 80s
Learned from Colombian bazuco
A waste by product from cocaine production you could smoke
Wicked nasty stuff
I tried one puff in bogota in 82 and that was all I needed
I didn’t like coke which was fortunate
The rest of the folklore on CIA and blow is just black urban legend like pyramids
Maybe Ortega took inspiration from the Democrat “Yankees”.
