Mexico is Most Dangerous Latam Country for Journalists

  • 9 years ago
Mexico is the most dangerous country in Latin America for journalists, according to a report from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR). Of the 150 journalists killed last year in Latin America, a third were murdered in Mexico. The IACHR report underscores the correlation between violence against the press and government corruption. Mexican human rights activists charge that widespread impunity is the main factor that allows such violence to continue. Clayton Conn reports from Mexico City. teleSUR
