Politics

Ideologically Diario VEA is on the left side of the political spectrum, and as a result of its ownership by the state, it is much friendlier to President Hugo Chávez than most of Venezuela's dailies; hence its editorial line is critical of the United States and the Venezuelan opposition, as well as the Colombian government.[2]
