27248: (reply) Chamberlain: 27230: 27120: Kathleen: Journalists killed (fwd)




Submitted by Chamberlain:


How many NON-Haitian journalists have been killed in Haiti?


In recent times, only one.  This was Ricardo Ortega, of the Spanish TV
station Antena 3, who was shot dead on 7 March 04, a week after Aristide
fled.  He was covering a pro-Aristide demonstration in PauP.  He was first
reported to've probably been killed by pro-Aristide gunfire, but later
evidence suggested trigger-happy US troops had killed him (though not
targeting him personally).
