Journalists in Mexico have a high mortality rate.

As a result, little is reported in the Mexican press regarding the pandemic of violence in this precarious failed state right next door.

Most Americans know endless details about television and sports stars, but have zero clue about the warfare going on right on our border.

Mexico still runs tourism ads as though nothing is wrong.

Much is wrong.

Drug cartels are variously aligned with political parties; they have become integral part and parcel of Mexican politics.

Since their news reporters downplay and give no coverage about the cartel / political warfare, narcotrafficantes resort to something like the Old West "Wanted" poster to communicate.

Yes, it is in Spanish.  But there are page after page of gory pictures.  Simply reported.  Anonymously.

One homepage article details the US capture of a trafficante who laundered his money through a horse ranch in [b]Oklahoma.[/b]

This is all going on next door to us.

And yet very few know, very few care.
