1. LK's questions were well prepared. Huguito is nothing if not a motor mouth, able to talk his way |
|
up, down, and around.
LK: "You have shut down 32 media (outlets). (free speech, yadda yadda) Are you going to shut down Globo(vision?)?"
Huguito: "That's not true. CHOMSKY, you know CHOMSKY? He visited us and said that if your (outlet, CNN) broadcast appeals for a coup or to assassinate your president, not only would they be shut down, but would be charged with crimes..."
LK: "WE said those things on CNN?!1"
Huguito: "No, no, IF you said those things... (Those 32 outlets) broke the law."
LK: "So my question was, are you going to shut down Globovision?
Huguito: "I don't know!1 If they continue to exhort for a coup and to assassinate me, it's up to them!1"

2. "What do you like about the U.S.?" |
|
"Baseball. The people. Movies."
He picked up a load full of steam, listing tons of pop cultural items. Movies, movies, movies.

3. To be fair the translator is weak. |
|
It's a hard thing to do, but I've heard several basic mistakes in her translation that really mix up the meanings.

7. "I love. I dream. I sing." (Question was, "Are you misunderstood, your image in the U.S.?" |

"do you have faith?"
"I love Jesus Christ. I cry at injustice. The pain of others. Children in hunger. Hope faith peace. I don't smell sulpher anymore. The U.S. should unite with Latin America."
Sorry, but I was typing as fast as I could. Oh, Huguito ended in English: "Larry THE KING!1 Larry THE KING!1"
