Mexican Journalist Alejandro Gallegos Found Murdered in Tabasco
---------------------------------------------------------------

Press freedom groups are demanding an investigation and full
accountability following the murder of Mexican journalist Alejandro
Gallegos, whose body was found in Tabasco state this weekend. Gallegos
ran the news site La Voz del Pueblo, or "The Voice of the People." His
loved ones and colleagues gathered for his funeral on Sunday.

Edison Mateospayro: "It's hard not to mix politics with day-to-day life,
especially in a state such as Tabasco, where we breathe politics. We
need our government to get involved in taking actions that provide
safety. They should do their work. We really need to get from words to
actions."
