“
A nation’s journalists and writers, like its poets and story-tellers, are the eyes, ears, and mouths of the people. When journalists cannot freely speak of what they see and hear of the reality that surrounds them, the people cannot see, hear, or speak it either.
—

As the Committee to Protect Journalists notes, 43 journalists have been murdered in Mexico since 2006
