Venezuela pop band says Chavez expropriates ‘Loser’ song

CARACAS, Sept 19: Venezuelan pop group Los Amigos Invisibles says it is the latest victim of socialist President Hugo Chavez’s wave of expropriations. The group is demanding a state-owned radio station yank a publicity spot remixing its song “Majunche” as a re-election campaign plug for Chavez, who is known for his frequent and often uncompensated nationalizations of businesses.
