CPJ’s representative in Mexico, Mike O’Connor, appeared on “NBC Nightly News” with Brian Williams on Tuesday. The segment is about the killing of a staff photographer of El Diario, the major daily in the Mexican city of Ciudad Juárez, and the announcement that the paper will restrict its coverage in the wake of the shooting death of one of its photographers.
O’Connor says “In Mexico, the government cannot, will not, does not protect journalists.”
