Hello this week are to begin and to finish this section with the protagonist of
the muddy ones here in front of you because of me, because of my
great guilt, in last Wednesday' s editorial, in the printed edition we
changed the position to Juana Francisca. The president is no longer pure American and
who was the main spokesperson for the announcement that made ps sweat that day in
the initial draft. I was fine, but looking at the various contents,
I found that in several parts I presented her to her as the president of
the ETS and of brute I made the change in editorial thinking of confirming later,
but I evolated in a meeting that lasted and when I went to review,
I saw that I had been wrong. I went to change it again,
but the page had already gone to print. There was nothing to do
and mode alone in the digital version could be corrected before publishing. And without
a doubt, one of the greatest jewels this newspaper has is its archive and
the team of the Cultural Magazín. Here it has been put as a purpose
or exculcated in it, particularly in the archive of the magazine, and disembowel
some texts and republished to revalue them. Thus, on the occasion of one
hundredth anniversary of the death of José Asunción Silva, this week a text of
nine hundred and twenty- four written on the occasion of the twenty- six
years of his death was republished and, well, the presentation of the article
clarified the date of publication of that text and an informed dyed line that had
been published twenty- six years after his death. However, at the time
of submitting the article on social networks. The date of the text was deleted
and it remained as if we were publishing it now, twenty- six years
after his death. It said, of course, in moments it did not
attend or how we deserved it and the post had to be published within minutes
of being on the air. We also gave life this week to a new
verb in the Spanish language. With dinar doubt that those who read our holder
of combinable scholarships were encouraged to apply to them, as they surely thought they
had some cat locked up in spirit. What they are is condonable and that
condinate verb that we invent does not exist. In conclusion, given what generated
some conversation in networks, because the protagonist returns here basically to repeat what I
said to the armadillo, a project that makes a very unnecessary scrutiny of the
media. When I was asked the dilemma of having already accepted a trip to
Israel a few months ago invited by the Jewish Community here in Colombia before,
I must say that the ethical debate raised about Indian women to journalists seems very
valid to me and that the ideal would be for the media to have the
resources to have journalists throughout the world and covering on the ground the most important
events. But that, unfortunately, is impossible, so I think that this
debate, as it should go hand in hand, should be about the question
of staying informed from a computer forever or being able to complement that distant look
with one on the ground, of course, knowing the limits imposed by an
invitation. Last February this opportunity to go to Israel, only to Israel and
on an organized journey, was presented, and I felt it was valuable to
be able to know more than what was happening there on the ground, of
course, under the premise that it was not going to be a journalistic cover,
that the basic premise was that there was no commitment to publish anything about
that trip. Yes, I did not feel that it was responsible to write
a single line about that journey, because I had no way to contrast it
properly. Now I do feel that it was a very valuable experience that offered
me important contexts of understanding. I will always believe that a journalist should listen
to and see the greatest number of sources and missions of particular realities and that
that, therefore, does not compromise his convictions much less his professionalism. On
the contrary, think that looking with one eye, as it is not journalism
at all. So, yes, I repeat, the debate raised is perfectly
valid, but for those who really want to analyze it, not for those
who are stuck on that trip to try to promote the idea that the viewer
sold his work for an invitation do not know us. No doubt. In
addition, they take paragraphs of information to give that impression. Or I said
going, for example, that the result of saying already is that we give
them the space Jewish columnists when they have been writing in the viewer for several
decades or invisibilizing the opening that this newspaper gives to the voices defending the Palestinian
cause that are hardly found in other media. But well, the bodemites are
in action. Well, it' s no more. They see us a lot.
