## About

In Caracas, running a news operation critical of the government means running one that may not be able to stay in Caracas. Caracas Chronicles has built its credibility precisely because it continued despite those pressures, producing political analysis and economic coverage of Venezuela's crisis with literary quality and sourcing standards that distinguish it from partisan comment. Its team, much of it now operating from abroad, remains the most analytically serious English-language voice on contemporary Venezuela.

- **Focus areas:** Venezuelan politics, economic crisis, human rights, governance, opposition perspective; English-language Venezuelan news and analysis


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
