Privatize State-Owned Media, Public Companies (Associated Press, 11/20/23)
Populist Javier Milei, a libertarian economist and self-described “anarcho-capitalist,” won a presidential runoff election Sunday with 55.7% of the vote. He said Monday that he would move quickly to privatize the country’s state-owned media outlets and look to do the same with other public companies.
“Everything that can be in the hands of the private sector will be in the hands of the private sector,” Milei told Bueno Aires station Radio Mitre.
