Mexican Newspaper Shuts Down, Saying It Is Too Dangerous to Continue
I'm native from cd Juarez and I have a friend who is a journalist photographer and I'm sorry to tell you guys that even indeed free and critical journalism is on constant jeopardy because of the drug cartels and the corrupt government this journal didn't closed because it was to dangerous to do so. My friend told me that it closed because it was not profitable anymore.<p>The facebook rant about it: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sugeyry/posts/10154385439001931?pnref=story" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com/sugeyry/posts/10154385439001931?pnr...</a><p>Keep in mind that this is a journalist talking about a decision made the by owner of the paper a while ago, the original decision haves nothing to do with the death of Miroslava Breach or with some pressure of drug gangs. This paper was under the payroll of the late government now followed for corruption and money laundry (Cesar Duarte former governor is hidden at El Paso at this moment). And the "it is too dangerous to continue" is more a political cry out than any other thing.<p>Yes: times are still hard at Juarez, journalism is still a high risk job. But this is not a statement.
