Hey. A massacre is a massacre. More than a hundred dead. They
' re over a hundred dead. More clearly, he doesn' t sing
a pipe. That' s why I don' t fully understand the avalanche
of eardrops that we received from the headline of our printed newspaper cover the next
day of the massacre of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip with the entry this one
of the trucks with humanitarian aid. I am not going to defend that headline
very impetuously if I find it somewhat problematic in the face of such a tremendously
unjustifiable act. However, if I would like to say that in a war
covered from so far away, I will always prefer restraint against the facts that
the hasty trial of the X- Y is true that day, as there
were very contradictory versions of how that massacre took place. That was not what
was clear as the MASAC happened, but it is also true that the headline
was unclear. He lent himself to interpret it as an attempt to hide the
barbarism. Much of the criticism of that cover, however, went much further
with the headline, but also with other contents in which we kept a cautious
distance from the versions of the two sides in this war, Never and the
State of Israel on how the facts attributed to each of them happened. Never
' s version for these critics was credible, but Israel did not, and
therefore considered that only to include Israel' s position in the information was properly
attributed, as it was already to take a party in their favour. There,
then, he cannot agree in any war. And this is no exception.
What there is is from that information from all sides and unless journalists of
ours had been there in the field doing their job, being able to testify,
assume as true, a single version and more hot, not even including
the explanations of the aggressor as implausible or cynical as it is, because that
is not journalism. But if that headline was unlucky in view of the magnitude
of the fact, other mistakes this week were deplorable, although with less impact,
that we spend a lot on digital, that we make a mistake,
that we take a letter, even in headlines, but when that happens in
the printed newspaper, it is really a mistake and of course, the worst
thing is that it cannot be corrected. This is the way it is forever,
because this week we kicked instead of price Galeón San José in a headline
of the printed newspaper. And to top it all off we had some changes
in the opinion team and the person in charge of mounting the four- March
columns on the print set up a column byÁlvaro Forero that had already come
out on February 4 and I still remember that in one of the first exams
when one started working in journalism. I do not know very well why it
was to know the military and police degrees and even to know how to identify
them by the insinias in the uniforms, because that is no longer important,
almost as it happens also with the spelling and the horror grammar. The fact
is that the grades are already quite confusing for journalists and this week we proved
it with the case of the murder of a soldier by a partner. I
don' t know where we decided that the partner was a cadet and so
we put it in a headline, also in the form and in the following
days we continue to use it like this in the digital that has been ca,
because not if it was a companion, because it was another soldier and
never as explained to me by a good friend, because I told them that
the examination spent it scraping and over the years it has forgotten me. Cadets
are the ones who race to become officers soldiers, not so they are but
good. That' s all, see you bye.
