From Agence France Presse.

Ecuador's new media regulator, considered a censorship tool by the opposition, has opened proceedings against a press cartoonist whose drawing was considered offensive by President Rafael Correa.

Xavier Bonilla, who works for El Universo, one of Ecuador's main newspapers, which is known for its critical tone against the president, told AFP he had received notification of a summons January 15.
