Good Places To Get A Brazilian Wax Edmonton
is a typical case where the cure is worse than the disease. The temporary suspension of a television station and the removal of one radio frequency was intemperate and inappropriate act that could lead to a number of consequences. Not because the right to freedom of expression is a freedom that has little to do with communication media. But because it comes at a political moment in which we discuss a new media law, which clears the dictatorship. What
mind can come up in applying this legislation (or regulations) at a time when his replacement is debate precisely because of the atrocities it contains? The way to replace it is not without concerns about the way has been giving and fund proposals that have been raised Manichean. The discussion has been reducing the conflict between the views of a majority ruling and defending guild corporatist media.

The Assembly should seek greater participation of different stakeholders to discuss and reflect the new law. Recall that in Argentina the law of audiovisual services, before being approved by Parliament, was widely known and discussed in all provinces. That the Assembly be given time to implement its political capacity to make a law that serves the interests of the community, giving the State of suitable instruments for this purpose.
Unfortunately, the state projected blunder headed in a direction contrary to its regulatory obligations. This should be based on clear procedures and prioritize appropriate countermeasures without degrading or worse, if we want to prevent the state is at the same level as those agencies that must regulate the media, which have no compunction about using every trick to become victims.
