Beskrivning
Since the 2000 elections toppled the PRI, over 150 Mexican journalists have been murdered. Failed assassinations and threats have silenced thousands more. Such high levels of violence and corruption question one of the fundamental assumptions of modern societies, that democracy and press freedom are inextricably intertwined. In this collection historians, media experts, political scientists, cartoonists, and journalists reconsider censorship, state-press relations, news coverage, and readership to retell the history of Mexico's press.

Recensioner i media

We journalists are not in the business of staying silent. For us, silence is not an option. But for those who abuse their power, censorship has always been a tool at their disposal. Well, this indispensable book shows us that, at the end, every story will be told (even the story of censorship)."" - Jorge Ramos, author of A Country for All: An Immigrant Manifesto
