| 0 komentar

Violence and death threats against journalists in Mexico from drug cartels are so intense. It makes sense, with the same humanitarian reasons, three reporters at the State Sombrero was requested asylum in the United States.
Three reporters told me about his life experiences according to AP and AFP on Thursday (16/06/2011). They urged the U.S. government to speed up asylum applications they propose.

Emilio Gutierrez Soto said he first received threats in 2005 after writing a story about alleged military involvement in drug smuggling in the northern state of Chihuahua. Three years later, his house terrorized and receive more threats.

He had complained of this threat to the national government, but did not get a meaningful response. Eventually he left Mexico in 2008 with his son who was 15 years old.

Gutierrez was arrested more than seven months in U.S. immigration detention center, until the story unfold on television. Meanwhile, his son was detained for four months. Despite having permission to work, Gutierrez has not been getting the job.

Immigration proceedings against him most likely will not happen before 2012. He appealed to the U.S. Government to make decisions on their cases and to fellow journalists who suffered a similar fate.

Silent

Journalist Ricardo Aldana Chavez, who frequently attack the drug cartels in a radio broadcast, should lose his nephew who was murdered in front of his house. He and his wife, son, and his mother also received death threats until he decided to cross the border into El Paso, Texas, in 2009. "I've covered more than 4,000 murders," he told a group of journalists gathered in the tourist area of ​​Disney's Coronado.

"They are destroying Mexico. They are killing children, pregnant women," said Chávez when speaking about the drug war in Mexico.

Another journalist who received a similar threat was Alejandro Hernandez Pacheco, a cameraman for TV Televisa. He had been kidnapped along with three other journalists in July last year in Durango, Mexico.

Kidnappings carried out by one of the largest drug cartels in Mexico are demanding that Televisa no longer broadcast the news about the drug gangs. He was released a week later and crossed the border in October 2010.

All three journalists asylum request is still pending and while waiting they also face an additional challenge for U.S. public concern over the flood of immigrants from Mexico. However they assert will not return to Mexico. At least 66 journalists were killed in the last four years in Mexico.

Angela Kocherga from Belo TV, who covered the case of asylum requests and death threats against journalists, said, "Violence against Mexican journalists to create quiet zones."

"This is a war on our side of the house and even more to know for what happened in Afghanistan," said Kocherga.

James Arness a died fame 'Gunsmoke' at 88

Matt Dillon, the mythical marshal of Dodge City, stood tall — all 6 feet, 6 inches of him — on "Gunsmoke" from 1955 to 1975. He outlasted dozens of other Western heroes while making history on TV’s longest-running dramatic series, a record that held until NBC’s "Law & Order" tied the CBS Western’s record in 2010.

Through all those gunslinging years, James Arness, who died Friday, kept Marshal Dillon righteous, peace-seeking and, most of all, believable.

Fickle viewers can kill a TV hero as surely as a bullet from an outlaw’s six-gun. But Arness knew how to maintain order not only in circa-1870s Dodge City, but also among the TV audience, whose itchy fingers on their channel changers he knew how to calm.

In an era when TV actors typically chewed the scenery, Arness had a credible, commanding presence by hardly uttering a word. A typical scene found a dozen cowboys riding up to the town jail intent on busting out a prisoner pal.

Dillon faces them all down.

"The first move anybody makes," he says, with a slight shake of his head, "I cut you in two."

Arness’ defiant but rueful delivery is so understated, he makes Clint Eastwood seem like a loudmouth.
n this May 13, 2002 file photo, actor Jim Arness, best known for his role as Marshal Matt Dillon of "Gunsmoke," is shown at his home in the Brentwood section of Los Angeles. CBS spokesman Chris Ender says Arness died Friday, June 3, 2011 of natural causes. He was 88.
By the end of his career, Arness, who was 88 when he died at his home in Brentwood, Calif., seemed almost indistinguishable from Matt Dillon in the audience’s mind.
Befitting Marshal Dillon’s dignity and composure, Arness wrote, and left behind, a simple, straight-from-the-heart farewell which, at his request, was posted posthumously Friday on his official website.
"I had a wonderful life and was blessed with ... (so) many loving people and great friends," he said, then went on to thank his multitude of fans.
In life, Arness was a quiet, intensely private man who preferred the outdoor life to Hollywood’s party scene, rarely gave interviews, and refused to discuss his personal tragedies (his daughter and his former wife, Virginia, both died of drug overdoses).
"He’s big, impressive and virile," co-star Amanda Blake (Miss Kitty) once said of Arness, adding, "I’ve worked with him for 16 years, but I don’t really know him."
The actor was 32 when friend John Wayne declined the lead role in "Gunsmoke" and recommended Arness instead. Afraid of being typecast, Arness initially rejected it
