UPDATE 3:36PM: As I heard the news on the radio, there weren't any links to provide. Now there is, and here's the Reuters version of the story. But I really wonder if I was listening to the same radio show, cos Reuters has decided to headline its piece with "Ecuador wants community stakes in mining projects", trying to imply some sort of expropriation. What total bullshit! There are a thousand ways that locals can take a piece of a local project; for one thing they can buy the company's stock!! For another, the company can float new shares for those who want them. then there's the whole issue of taxation, and the royalty payments, and the worker's participation profits.

The big news ...the major mining message in Correa's address was clearly "We welcome foreign investment". That was 100% obvious to anyone listening, but Reuters filters this news, decides on what it thinks is worthy news for the English-speaking world and shuffles the real headline to the bottom of its report, as if it weren't important.

Message to reporters: REPORT THE FACTS, NOT WHAT YOU THINK.
