Thanks for visiting @primeraplana. This is a news aggregator service for steemians in Venezuela and the world. It is built daily by hand and requires effort. This allows you, whose time you consume in Steemit, to be able to verify what is happening outside of Steemit. This is experimental, so the account will probably go through transitions since it determines what is most useful for the community. In time we will share quality Steemit posts about news/opinion of Venezuela. Feel free to send news suggestions as comments. It is likely that they will not be examined exhaustively until the next headline publication. We will try to limit the amount of these publications that we publish every day to no more than 4, with additional brief reports in the style of quick posts (Twitter-like), in the case of breaking news that deserves it. With this account we will not make many comments and responses unless it is necessary to verify or obtain more information about a report. Those of us who work on this account will use our personal accounts for interactions of a personal nature or opinion. We want to remain free of prejudice and simply present the news in this account.

Well done job on this aggregator. @metalmag25, do you run this service?

Yes man, @primeraplana was launched last week. I felt the need to help steemians worldwide to check Venezuela headlines without any bias. And also is a way to review steemians who write about the current situation in Venezuela

Awesome. Keep it up. I'm impressed, brother.

Most North Americans are clueless about South America - myself included, to a certain degree. I would encourage you to also think about tossing in some news about SA as a whole (if you haven't already - forgive my ignorance, lol), especially if any of it relates to our life here. Unfortunately, it appears as though many will not venture out of their bubble too far, unless there is something in it for them! Also, there is just so much info for us to digest.
