Earlier, a group of Latin American countries and Canada said Mr Maduro was a threat to peace and security in the region and called for his immediate exit, a democratic transition and free elections.
Meeting in the Colombian capital, Bogotá, the Lima group urged the International Criminal Court to consider whether Venezuela was guilty of crimes against humanity for refusing to allow aid into the country.
At least two people died in Saturday's clashes between civilians and troops loyal to Mr Maduro that blocked the entrance of foreign aid organised by opposition leader and self-declared interim President Juan Guaidó.
Mr Maduro says the aid efforts are part of a US-orchestrated coup.
Natalie Southwick, Central and South America programme co-ordinator of the Committee to Protect Journalists, said: "By shutting down an interview and censoring one of Latin America's most high-profile reporters, Nicolás Maduro has demonstrated his fundamental disregard for the press."
Last month, several local and foreign journalists were briefly detained while working in Caracas. Some ended up being deported.
On Twitter, Mr Rodríguez added: "Hundreds of journalists have come through Miraflores who have received decent treatment that we always give to those who do journalistic work."
"He got up after I showed him videos of young people eating out of a bin lorry," he said of the interview at the Miraflores palace in the capital, Caracas.
"What I told Nicolás Maduro is that millions of Venezuelans and many governments around the world don't consider him a legitimate president but a dictator."
US broadcaster Univision says its team was briefly detained in the Venezuelan presidential palace where they had been interviewing President Nicolás Maduro.
The incident happened after award-winning journalist Jorge Ramos showed Mr Maduro images of Venezuelans eating from a bin lorry, the network says.
Their equipment was confiscated.
Venezuela's Information Minister Jorge Rodríguez said the government had welcomed hundreds of journalists but it did not support "cheap shows".
Univision, the leading Spanish-language TV network in the US, said the six-member crew had been released after almost three hours but that their recording and personal belongings had not been returned.
Speaking on Univision, Mr Ramos said Mr Maduro "had not liked" some of the questions about "the lack of democracy in Venezuela, torture, political prisoners and the humanitarian crisis".
While Serena Williams may not be an actress or singer, she knows a thing or two about what it's like to become a star.
Chinese-Canadian animator Domee Shi collected an Academy Award for best animated short for her directorial debut, Bao. The Disney-Pixar film resonated with many Asian communities around the world for representing their culture and heritage.
The Oscars failed to find a main host this year after comedian Kevin Hart pulled out following a row about old homophobic tweets.
So instead of having the traditional opening monologue, Bridesmaids co-stars Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph and Amy Poehler appeared to introduce the show as well as presenting the first award.
"We are not your hosts this year but if we had hosted, it probably would have gone like this," Fey said - before the trio launched into a sketch poking fun at some of the nominees, which is one of the host's usual jobs.
The ceremony continued to rely on a procession of stars presenting individual awards.
But it didn't obviously suffer from the lack of an overarching host, and it helped the event move along.
Pop band Queen, fronted by singer Adam Lambert, had opened the ceremony with a bombastic medley of We Will Rock You and We Are the Champions as A-listers waved and clapped along in their seats.
Richard E Grant, Rachel Weisz and Christian Bale lost out on the acting awards.
But there was a string of British winners in some key technical categories.
