The
Secretary General of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela
(PSUV), during the 570th broadcast of his show Con el Mazo
Dando, invited journalism professionals to practice ethics
and to undergo a review process.
“Journalism
as a profession has to be reviewed, because something is wrong; we don't know if it's in
universities, but it's in the world,” said Cabello, while
recognizing those who carry out this work, which he described as complex.
In addition,
he invited communication professionals to practice ethically seeking to
“be objective”. “If you are a journalist and want to dedicate yourself to politics,
welcome, use your knowledge for that, but don't be a politician trying to
be a journalist because it looks very bad and in the underworld they call you a
longlifter.”
Finally,
he honored the journalist and comrade Earle Herrera, whom he described
as an extraordinary person who practiced “decent journalism”.
