In 1992 the North American writer Gore Vidal published a titled novel Live From Golgotha, where he makes use of a satirical interpretation of gospels and its protagonists, as well as of the resources of science fiction to illustrate malabares of a television equipment whose mission is to transmit live the crucifixion of Jesus. In their fight by the rating, the reporters do not doubt in resorting to the last technology to show the reality of a fact and simultaneously to destroy it with their overwhelming prescencia in a world that did not know to them completely.

With this basic literary context, buy diazepam inexpensive facts happened as of the dawn of Monday 25 of January of 2010 (with the aggression armed against the buy diazepam inexpensive Paraguayan soccer player Cabins in a cavern of the south of the City of Mexico) deserve a diazepam medication valium mention since, they show a revealer cuts of box than it means the work of the justice organs when the means happen of witnesses to public prosecutors had with unofficial investiture.

It is possible to indicate that the prescencia of mass media in violent facts is not new absolutely: or from diazepam medication valium half of century XIX mass media as the Briton The Illustrated London News gave account and exerted simultaneous pressure for the resolution of the crimes committed by Jack the Ripper or the paper who played the New York buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma to stimulate the participation of the United buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma in the war against Spain of 1898.

Nevertheless, in Mexico the direct pressure of mass media is a phenomenon with smaller data. Only until the decade of 1990 it is when the means begin to exert an important paper of public pressure to contrapelo of the will of the organs of the buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma It from the murder of buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma Donaldo Colosio and especially of the happened White Water slaughter in the state of Guerrero in 1995, when the original video of the massacre (that revealed an act of premeditaded violence of forces of the order against disarmed farmers) was transmitted by journalist Ricardo Rocha a year later, which finished in the permanent request of license of the governor of this state, except for the capture of some actors of the massacre.

A more direct paper of mass media would exert Aztec the Televisión company after the murder of the conductor Francisco Stanley Alpaca buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma 1999. After the first news of the crime, conductors buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma even the Saline proprietor of the company, Ricardo Sheet, spent hours to picture to insult the crime, to demand justice and to make responsible directly to the government of the Federal District by their inaction before the fact, which in fact derived in a buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma war between both actors who buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma during the Cardinal red administration of Cuauhtémoc like Head of Government.

With buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma passage diazepam medication valium the years, buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma facts have deepened the influence diazepam medication valium mass buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma judicial processes: the political transition of 2000 that besides granting the presidency to a party different from the PRI (that had governed continuously by more than 7 decades) even attenuated and cancelled mechanisms that the State exerted to control the contents of mass media like the buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma in the granting of concessions of companies of telecommunications and the institutional weakening of the Main directorate of Radio, Television and Cinematography in the Secretariat of Interior, before the appearance and buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma consolidation of the associated Federal Commission of Telecommunications (Cofetel).

Nevertheless, it would want to make notice some technological changes buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma have harnessed buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma influence of mass buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma Technologies as buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma Web site of YouTube videos and the capacity of the cellular telephones to catch video have buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma the routes of acquisition of images in movement, which increases the possibilities that a criminal fact is testified reason why formerly was known like amateur video makers, and that in a matter of hours the image is available within reach of that wish to observe it, without governmental censorships nor mediations of by means.

More important, in my opinion, buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma is buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma propagation buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma the cycle of the news 24/7 (or permanent) between the Mexican public. With the massive expansion in the decade of 2000 of technological dispostivos, buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma and the increasing access of the Mexican population to a supply of restricted television (that happened of 1 million subscribers in 1992 to more than 7,4 million in 2009 according to Cofetel) the average premises of communication (printed and audio-visual) have increased their needs of news coverage. No longer it is only required to at night cover with buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma the reporter or the edition with the following day: buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma stations as 98,5 Report or Format 21 in the City of national Mexico and channels as Millenium TV they produce news programmes hourly even at dawn. On the other hand, sites as eluniversal.com.mx or reforma.com presents/displays information buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma few minutes, without concerning the hour of the day or the night.

Despite the content generated by informative agencies like Reuters or Notimex, the information means require diazepam medication valium maintain a flow of constant and fresh local information in all the day. They require and it since, in agreement with Neil Postman, in its How book to watch TV News, the form and content of the buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma of the news is made in order maintain to the viewers observing the screen to be exposed to the commercial buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma Needless to say that this logic has buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma even in digital mass media: it is buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma to attract the hearing to expose it to banners and announcements of the sponsors.

An additional factor: the sprouting of the social networks in Internet (Facebook, Twitter, etc) creates a layer of information in two routes: an inexhaustible source of tendencies (trends, hashtags), rumors, blogs, personal profiles with unpublished material (photos, videos), support battalions buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma denostación of conjunctural causes that nourish with information and crude data to the average professionals of communication like newspapers and television transmitters; in exchange for buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma they receive formalized contents (news buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma opinions with spokesmen of high level), with which the users of the social networks can generate more answers, adhesions and opinions and place more own audio-visual containing, that buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma being the greater number of participation of the users in Internet.

How affects this the relation mass media - judicial processes? Until some years ago, the communication between the organizations of the State and the mass media were circumscribed to bulletins of press and occasional interviews granted by civil servants authorized in exceptional buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma Nowadays the informative needs have been extended to the point that in subjects of high impact (as the aggression against the soccer player Cabins) the means even demand and obtain daily press conferences and several times to the day. In addition it is made them arrive (sometimes of unofficial way) information from the investigations in course, suspects and lines of investigation.

This abre additional problems buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma a judicial system buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma his affected by structural problems. No longer the liberation of information only when finalizing buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma admitted the investigations (what it used buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma be made to dilute the interest of mass media in a subject), and although the filtrations to the means are a practice of long data, the increasing speed in the demands of these do buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma the information released contega errors that take to the signalling of people that they do not have to do in the subject or of plane, makes reference to nonexistent tracks, buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma in the lapse of few hours, causing serious damages to the public honour of innocent people, as well as distortions in the judicial processes.

The tendency of mass media in Mexico moves towards a permanent cover of buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma (with diazepam medication valium appearance of new actors like the channel of the news of Television, announced diazepam medication valium this year and in a long term, the expansion in the operations of international channels like Cnn), reason why the systems of communication in the diverse powers of the State will have to be prepared more soon possible before the buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma of mass media.

Nevertheless, buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma problem is not unique of the Judicial Power: the epidemic of influenza A/H1N1 of the past year showed that the Executive authority (especially in the organisms in charge of the management of the buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma is not preparation to respond to the needs of mass media when the situation requires of a flow of constant information.

But it is not a problem that only concerns to the state organizations. From the writing tables buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma average digitalises, traditional and buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma a reflection around the model of rising information is precise, our country runs the diazepam medication valium of happening of a situation of average controlled means to a panorama of frivolizados, diazepam medication valium to look for the last declaration (even though this is buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma or of useless plane) and to buy carisoprodol diazepam online soma to the values that have done in other nations and other times, bastion of the confidence and information of quality for the best exercise of the democratic citizenship.

But this is another subject.
