Jorge Zepeda Patterson takes Felipe Calderón to task for criticizing reporters for reporting only the bad news in Mexico. Sound familiar?
I don't know what the context of Calderón's comment was, but I'm inclined to think it all but indefensible. The Mexican press jumps all over splashy arrests and drug seizures, so if he's talking about beat reporters, the criticism is simply false. If Calderón was talking about opinion columnists and security analysts, he is right that may be inclined to take a more critical view of Mexican security, but their job is to put news stories like those linked above into the proper context. Right now, that context is a downer.
