Chavez backer held over TV attack
A pro-government activist in Venezuela has handed herself over to the authorities a day after a violent attack on an opposition TV station.
>
President Hugo Chavez said left-wing militant Lina Ron, who has been one of his most ardent supporters, would now face the full weight of the law.

He deplored the attack on Globovision TV, and said it would help his opponents brand him as a tyrant.
>
He described the attack as a "counter-revolutionary" act, saying that it "gives the enemy weapons to attack me even more as a tyrant".

1. She's not even in the same party but they have to call her a "Chavez backer".
