La Patilla

La Patilla, which translates to "The Watermelon" in English, is a news platform from Venezuela established in 2010 by Alberto Federico Ravell, who is also a co-founder and former CEO of Globovisión. This website is headquartered in Venezuela and ranks among the top 600 most visited websites globally, as per Alexa rankings, making it one of the most popular sites in the country. El Nuevo Herald reports that La Patilla attracts hundreds of thousands of daily readers. However, since early 2018, the site has faced ongoing censorship by the government of Nicolás Maduro.
