The two words NEWS and RECOMMENDATION do not have quite the same definition.
You have to remember, news reporters in Mexico live under an umbrella or FEAR and INTIMIDATION. The most accurate source of news is onsite residents not reporters who got their facts from other reporters, who got it direct from a housecleaning lady in Houston who has a sister in law in Morelia.
The GOVERNMENT is interested in one thing - nailing a plank across their butt. At the expense of anything and everything else. Actually seeing and talking to Rurales and their unregistered Autodefensas partners is the most accurate source of facts. Not the leaders! Leaders of these two groups have their own agendas.
