THE SIMPSONS - THE SIMPSONS RETURNS TO TV IN VENEZUELA

Venezuela's president HUGO CHAVEZ has u-turned on his decision to ban

THE SIMPSONS from TV - allowing the popular U.S. cartoon to be shown
at a later time. The long-running cartoon has been replaced earlier
this month (Apr08) after Chavez deemed it contained "messages that go
against the whole education of boys, girls and adolescents". However,
in a shock move, regulators have decided to keep showing the
long-running show - but have moved it to a 7pm slot. But the channel,
Televen TV, may now face fines and could even be banned from
broadcasting for three days after regulators insist the channel
ignored orders insisting the show should be dropped from its original
11am time slot.
