A FREE AND DEMOCRATIC PRESS


By: Romamy Miranda Gutierrez.


"Violence against journalists narrows and annihilate the freedom of expression, because a murdered communicator is a fundamental right liquidated "

Carmen Aristegui




PERSECUTION TO JOURNALISTS IN MEXICO
MISSING adjectives to express fully complete outrage generated by the repeated attacks on journalists being perpetrated across the country.  Newspapers , radio stations and even local and regional television stations are becoming a constant target for organized crime groups , with no authority capable of ensuring both journalism and the right of the people to be informed .


It is unfortunate that journalists are a vulnerable group in society because nowadays lack the minimum guarantees of protection to exercise freely their work truthfully inform society .


It is assumed that this problem was created a Special Prosecutor for the Investigation and Prosecution of Crimes against Journalists. However, if carefully analyzed his performance, it would be difficult to find a similar fiasco over six years , which represents more than this weak and incompetent law enforcement request .


I think it is a vulnerable entity that journalist who can not provide information that quite simply can not talk about a certain subject , especially when your life is at stake .


I must admit that much of what is happening we would have earned , because we have fallen into the vices of all professions, follow the easy path.


Just as there are irresponsible engineers who build bridges that fall , as there are other bright professional , so in our guild 's bright and diligent journalists who uncover things that were not known , the journalist also has in his hands the possibility of destroying honors only with his pen.

Let's be honest and amazing that we seem issues as freedom of expression, press freedom and attacks on journalists are not part of the dinner conversations between presidents of parties , state secretaries , coordinators parliamentary factions or governors, except in cases where the which refers to the grade international bodies give Mexico on these issues.



JOURNALISM SIN NO JOURNALISTS
JOURNALISM SIN NO DEMOCRACY
And the talks eventually become signs , irony and the best lamentations , and unfortunately the debate end there. No one wonders who these journalists or perhaps covering a topic that exposed and sometimes draw their own conclusions , " he was probably involved with organized crime " or worse " how good, all journalists are terrible "


What is going on with Mexican society these days? Why does it seem that no matter the Mexicans


And it can be summarized : " the lack of solidarity among them journalists "


When you have seen the major television networks have supported the news about attacks on journalists from local media or independent media, is also rare in newspaper reports of attacks on journalists from a newspaper that is not their own .



JOURNALISTS SHOULD NOT BE KILLED BY TELLING THE TRUTH
Therefore, this information remains locally and not beyond the means of penetration, which has led to impunity and that in the last 10 years only 14 cases have been punished those responsible, according to the National Commission Human Rights (CNDH).

A network of 135 women defenders of human rights demanded on 12 December this year , the Mexican authorities "early filing" journalist Zoila Edith Chiu, whose whereabouts are unknown since last Saturday in the state of Zacatecas center of the country.

The network said Zoila is the first woman journalist missing this year and adds to the disappearance of journalists Sergio Landa, the Journal Cordel, in Veracruz, Juan José García, Technical Televisa Chihuahua, Gerardo Padilla Blanquet, newscaster Radio Group in Radiofónico Grande, Coahuila.

 He recalled that between 2010 and 2012 were he killed seven women journalists : María Elvira Hernández Galeana (Guerrero, 2010) , Selene Hernández León (Mexico State , 2010 ), Ana María Yarce Viveros ( Mexico City, 2011) , Rocío González ( Mexico City, 2011 ), Yolanda Ordaz (Veracruz , 2011 ), María Elizabeth Macías Castro ( Tamaulipas, 2011) , and Regina Martínez ( Veracruz, 2012).

In Quintana Roo authorities do not provide the necessary guarantees for journalists to do their job safely , are attacked , persecuted and harassed, was widespread manifestation of the guild that attended Workshop Failsafe for Journalists , which was conducted in the municipality of Benito Juárez, 13 and 14 of this December.

The House of Journalists' Rights
The event organized by The House of Journalists' Rights in conjunction with Freedom House 's main objective was to give talks in relation to the defense and promotion of the rights of journalists , stressed the importance of training and dissemination of collateral of this association, since prevention work is a transcendental element to generate an environment that favors the fundamental rights and human dignity flying .

The venue of the meeting was at the University of the Caribbean, where the representative of the state guild Machuca Graciela Martínez , urged attendees to constantly trained to inform and contextualize their information, and to be responsible and not betray the trust of society ...

Upsss ..!
