Walter Martinez is a Venezuelan award-winning journalist, originally from Uruguay. Martínez's career spans over three decades in radio, television and the press. He is best known for his work in International Relations.
He was a war correspondent during the 1980s and 1990s.
Until 2005 he worked for the state-owned Venezolana de Televisión TV channel, where he hosted and produced his half hour-long program "Dossier" every night at ten. Additionally, he hosted a radio version of "Dossier" on "Radio Nacional de Venezuela", also state-owned.
On September 15 and 16, 2005, Martínez claimed in their program that he had information about officials involved in corruption and that he had proofs.
As of November 2005 "Dossier" hadn't returned to the air, until September 15th 2008, when the program was given a new time slot in TeleSur channel. Now, "Dossier" is shown on a daily basis, in the 22:30 Venezuelan time slot, with Mr. Walter Martinez as its host.
Walter is famous for the coin phrase "nuestra única y contaminada nave espacial," which translates to our sole and polluted spaceship (referring to Earth). He would begin every radio and TV address with the phrase.
