- Razatzin,
- Siguiendo con la busqueda de noticias sobre Mexico y su
- Gran Timonel en la prensa internacional, heles aqui la busqueda
- de este dia.
- El Independent del 16 de nov, no tiene referencia alguna
- sobre Mexico salvo el resultado (en tipo de 6 puntos, se ve con
- lupa) de Mexico2, Honduras 0 en la seccion de resultados deportivos.
- La revista TIME (23 de nov) no tiene referencia alguna
- sobre Mexico o sobre CSG.
- La Revista Newsweek tiene 2 articulos, aqui les va el
- primero:
- A GOVERNOR'S FREE RIDE?
-
- Has press freedom really arrived in Mexico? Shortly before Manuel
- Bartlett Diaz was elected governor of Puebla state last week, Zachary
- Margulis, a reporter for an English language daily, The Mexico City
- News, tried to publish a story about Bartlett. In it, Margulis cited a US
- Drug Enforcement Administration report stamped "secret" that linked
- Bartlett to the 1984 murder of a Mexican journalist who was investigating
- his alleged association with Mexican druglords. But The News -run
- by Romulo O'Farrill, a close friend of Bartlett- killed the story and ordered
- Margulis not to write about Bartlett. Other reporters at the paper say
- they received similar orders.
- The clampdown wasn't limited to the News. Other major Mexican
- news organizations failed to raise questions about Bartlett, which
- flies in the face of President Carlos Salinas de Gortari's calls to
- make Mexico's election coverage more fair and open.
- According to the 1990 report, an informant said the
- journalist's murder "was carried out on the orders of Bartlett Diaz."
- Three months later another informant testified DEA agent Enrique
- Camarena was killed because he was "causing trouble" for Bartlett.
- At the time Bartlett was interior minister and oversaw the now
- defunct Federal Security Directorate. According to the report,
- he was said to be "acting in consort with narcotics traffickers".
- In response to Newsweek's inquiries, Bartlett referred to a 1990
- statement by the Mexico attorney general that characterizes the DEA
- informants' tesyimony as "irresponsible, false and libelous".
- Calls to O'Farrill were not returned.
-
- Hay otro reportaje sobre las carceles mexicanas que les
- mandare pronto.
- El Scientific American de noviembre no trae nada sobre
- Salinitas :) :) :) Asi como tampoco el Mountain Biking de
- diciembre :) :) :)
- El PAIS de hoy (17 de diciembre) no tiene ninguna nota
- sobre Mexico o Salinas.
- Seguiremos informando,
- Francisco
