Nelson Bocaranda Sardi (born 18 April 1945), is a Venezuelan television commentator, investigative journalist and founder of Runrunes.

Career

Bocaranda began studying journalism in 1962 at the Universidad Católica Andrés Bello in Caracas and started working for television station RCTV in the early 1980s, then worked for television station Venevisión in the 1990s under Óscar Yanes, who was his journalism professor. He has worked in several Venezuelan television stations as well as radio. On Unión Radio, he had a weekday show, "Los Runrunes de Nelson", and he writes for several newspapers, including El Universal. He would gain much of his following covering extraofficial information on the illness of Hugo Chávez, at a time when there was an "official veil of secrecy" about his health.

Awards

He has received several awards, including Venezuela's Premio Nacional de Periodismo (National Journalism Prize) and the Monseñor Pellín Award.

Personal life

He has been described as supporting the opposition of the Venezuelan government.
