--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Mexico, journalists protested Monday in the state of Michoacán to
demand authorities do more to investigate the disappearance of one of
their colleagues, Salvador Adame Pardo, who was kidnapped by gunmen five
days ago. He's been a journalist for more than two decades and is
currently the director of the television station 6TV. His kidnapping
comes amid a wave of murders of Mexican journalists.
