Argentina to Close Clarin’s Fibertel Internet Service
This article is for subscribers only.
Argentina’s government shut down the Internet service provided by Grupo Clarin SA’s Fibertel unit, saying the company’s merger with Cablevision SA was illegal.
The move is the latest in a fight between Clarin and President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, which says Argentina’s biggest media company is biased in its coverage of the government. The media company also owns the newspaper Clarin, the most-read Spanish-language daily in Latin America.
