In Mexico, violence against journalists has risen to the point that the country is now a sad record-holder. Multiple organizations, including Reporters Without Borders (RSF), have deemed Mexico the deadliest country for journalists in North and South America. In 2022, Mexico was the country with the most murdered journalists worldwide (11), according to RSF.
In addition to murders, human rights organizations such as Article 19 also track daily attacks against journalists, and found that in June 2022, a journalist or media institution was attacked every 14 hours in Mexico.
Article 19 estimates that many attacks on journalists in Mexico originate from state or local authorities. Since 2007, the Mexican administration — be it at the federal, state, communal or local level — is the most common aggressor against media. In the first half of 2022, authorities committed 128 attacks, or about 38,67% of all attacks the organization documented.
Mexico is run by the cartels, full-stop.
