In Venezuela from water taps "oil" went
In the Venezuelan city of San Diego from water taps black water poured down. Some assume that oil got to the water supply system. The Daily Mail writes about it.
Recently in the country water supply to houses was often interrupted. After it turned off once again, from the taps drip a black liquid, undrinkable, and unsuitable for economic use.
Users of social networks began to publish photos on the Internet. Some of them suggested that oil got into the water.

The comment.
Not only events in Venezuela (in itself), but also a format, a way of their information covering can become a subject of interest.
A few days ago, interested people formed some more or less complete picture of what is happening.
Today there is a feeling that the whole picture is breaking up into fragments.
What can we say about the news that "classes in Venezuelan schools suspended on March 8 ... will be resumed on March 18"? It is difficult to draw any unambiguous conclusions. In any case, this message is based on citing a certain public figure.
In General, more and more news from Venezuela is based on the citation of some public persons (And not on personal impressions and personal assessments of journalists).
How news about "black water" from under the crane is constructed? Article from the Daily Mail newspaper is used. It is possible to guess that the Daily Mail newspaper, in turn, used message from Twitter. In some sense such way of informing - also citing a certain public figure.
Why is this the situation? Are there any difficulties with personal acquaintance of journalists regarding the situation in Venezuela?
Approach of BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) is interesting. On March 14 2019 BBC published article "Blackout in Venezuela - a view from space. Photos" [https://www.bbc.com/russian/news-47559646].
If there are any difficulties with the personal acquaintance of journalists with the situation in Venezuela and their personal estimates (which is not an established fact, but merely an attempt presumably to explain the nature of the appearing articles), then these possible difficulties did not prevent the BBC to prepare the material on the basis of actual data (the data of space monitoring).
