Bolivia: Women Press Freedom Condemns Personal Attacks on TV Host Jimena Antelo

October 8, 2024 - Bolivia, La Paz

Jimena Antelo is facing smears from Evo Morales’ legal team, who have resorted to personal attacks instead of addressing serious allegations against the former president. During a recent interview, Morales' lawyers discredited the TV host's work by questioning her integrity and making unfounded claims about her connections.

Women Press Freedom stands with Antelo and demands an end to the intimidation and attempts to undermine her as a journalist. Press must be free to ask important questions about the former leader without facing irrelevant and unjust personal attacks.
