| description | This debate has as its protagonist the media companies that feel attacked not so much by the President’s words as by the government’s desire to regulate activities that, like communication, have been opened up to market logic. Their media campaign has managed to simplify the discussion, turning it into a defense of freedom of speech against “authoritarianism,” the word they use to characterize Correa´s administration. The administration, on the other hand, has not managed to include in this discussion, which affects not only the economic and political interests of the large media emporiums, all citizen groups that, right now, do not feel that the regulatory initiative is their issue. The definitive discussion, to be consistent with rights guaranteed by the Constitution, still has tasks pending. |

Their media campaign has managed to simplify the discussion, turning it into a defense of freedom of speech against “authoritarianism,” the word they use to characterize Correa´s administration.

The definitive discussion, to be consistent with rights guaranteed by the Constitution, still has tasks pending. Este debate ha tenido como protagonista a las empresas periodísticas quienes se sienten atacadas, no tanto por las expresiones del Presidente, como por el afán del gobierno de regular actividades que, como la de la comunicación, han estado liberadas a las lógicas del mercado. Su campaña mediática ha logrado simplificar la discusión a una defesa de la libertad de expresión en contra del "autoritarismo" con el que caracterizan al gobierno de Correa.
