Carlos Lauria Act Quotations

It's incredible. We have condemned this despicable act and we hope the reporter makes a full recovery. This is a newspaper that was already censoring some of its coverage because of attacks against it. Attacking a paper that was not doing aggressive coverage gives us a clear picture of the dangers that reporters confront in doing their job.

The fact that this happened to a newspaper that is not doing any investigative reporting into organized crime and drug trafficking ... shows how critical the situation has become.
