After an excellent first day, in a slightly cloudy due to incessant rains that demonstrated in the capital city on Saturday, youth from the inside the country in conjunction with others in the area looked intrigued by what was scheduled for that day, they ate sandwiches and drank juice, breakfast provided by the organizers of the event, as they neared 10:30 am amidst the hustle and bustle , entered the lobby of the institute the first speaker of the day, people had not noticed the character, but to do everything was silent and after a moment she heard whispers pure. He was in the lounge, the great journalist Bocaranda Nelson, who checked his BlackBerry and give directions to the two women who accompanied him. It was not long when a young brunette with brown curly hair with glasses approached pasta afraid and said something, instantly beckoned to a boy his group a little smaller than her with a very low threshold, who left the group with a camera and took a photo. between flashes and smiles, you could hear phrases like "I love your work Mr. Nelson", "I admire very much doctor" and the like. After a moment the organizers made the call for the start of the second day of the congress, where the young organizers were entering the auditorium Rafael Benigni row.
Once inside the auditorium, big place that made it possible to approximately 600 people, was viewed the end of this one kind of platform, where they were located a series of sound devices within the schools were great horns, a battery located on the left side of space, about five microphones scattered around the stage, a very small keyboard and a kind of movable podium that had printed the initials IESA. The lights gave the place a soft effect, while the cold took possession of it. The roof was to a great height and was completely black and located at a distance of 5 meters each were displayed a few white lights bulbs. The walls of a white rectangles were rarely covered timber in a symmetrically placed vertically next to each other giving librarian a touch of style to the audience. The seats of the place playing with the wood color that filled the site, were located as in a movie theater, a slant to avoid that occupy the post of obstruction had no back seats forward to when viewing the event.
After a bit of organization, while each of the people under his seat, kicked off the event scheduled for that day. Nelson Bocaranda journalist wearing jeans and a leather jacket, was located in what appeared to be a podium, he began to remember a story he lived when he was a student Journalism - I got to cover the arrival of President John Kennedy to Venezuela. In the year 58 had been Richard Nixon was vice president of the United States, and this visit was terrible, even in the midst of the visit and the trauma that caused the arrival of Vice President Richard Nixon, went up the Caracas-La Guaira highway reaching national cemetery, where a mob that almost flipped the armored vehicle that had been supplied by then the president of Venezuela, Pérez Jiménez, were about to kill Nixon. The Chancellor was then that Dr. Oscar Garcia Beruttini, was wounded by a bullet in the eye while in the car, where he presented a reaction large by the people who were in that place, bringing emergency relief to the American Embassy in San Rafael de La Florida, where at that time many things occurred. Well in Book 6 crisis talks about the moment Nixon, as in Maiquetía airport so they spit on him and his wife, the lady pictured with wet clothing as if it had rained. And I tell them that, because after that happened in 59, 62 President of the United States with President Romulo Betancourt, a walk through the streets of Caracas in a Cadillac convertible discovered where all Venezuelans went to view on Avenida Libertador. The contrast of what happened at one time to another. Well I played first formal practice of journalism was to go to the American Embassy that was recently opened in the building, where today is the Ministry of Tourism in the Forest, and good register now and take a picture of Kennedy with a cheap little camera well , which was a Kodak StartMate a huge light bulb. When you take the picture to Kennedy, what escandilo, and the guy said no pussy because he did not know the word but said "Oh" and has given me a "carajazo" in the head as I left stunned, yet I have this picture in my home. That was my first official practice of journalism .- Bocaranda said.
In an atmosphere of complete care journalist says - are very different at times we are living today in the field of journalism. Because when we began a single reporter covering the entire spectrum of government in the center of Caracas .- Stop a moment and continued to drink water - or the time he walked with a recorder. One of the things I meant but I stray from time to begin work in radio Helopuerto, one of the reporters of the radio that he had a very good record because traffic had been a prosecutor, said Dr. Hernández Solís was radio director Helopuerto .- Nelson recalled. In a somewhat sarcastic, after a drink of the cup containing water near your right hand continued - Do you know what was the test of whether he was a good journalist or not - the people who occupied the room responded in chorus - No! - And laughingly said - I said, grabbing a microphone there and say one, two, three. One, two, three, testing, testing one, two, three. Then the other reporter made a call and as he said, doctor and journalist as I have ta 'go. That was the event I did. Well this recorder that I carried was large, weighing 12 kilos and used 10 D size batteries and had to be replaced frequently because they were not alkaline, and one loaded with that "Corot" throughout the city. Like when I go to television cameras were film were a Auricon. A camera that had printed a magnetic strip that recorded in rolls of three minutes. Well my first interview in the channel was a lady who wanted to introduce here the monokini, which was a one-piece bikini hid you just tank the rest is left uncovered. Well I got to do this interview with this woman back, because Oscar Yanez, tabloid liked all those things sensational, she said that was the big interview. Then I had to interview the lady back because he could not see the breasts. That was my first interview. The second was, Geraldine Chaplin who came here with Carlos Saura in the year 73. There was something curious about it, talking English almost perfect but I could not read, and through the interview he said: "May I pee?". That also did not complete because we had to cut it out lest I wanted to pee. At that time I had to cover the news from Caracas and had to be done on foot. By then I had to cover Miraflores, courts, ministries of education, justice ministry, government agencies, churches and assembly completely on foot, but was a different time because by then you could walk around the city Caracas, making the time when I started my work periodísticos. culminating said their stories, receiving great applause from those in the room and continuing with the speech scheduled for that day.
