Televisa y PN
A little correction to this story. The links between Televisa and Pena Nieto as exposed by the Guardian, were not just this electoral campaign. It exposed a link going back years, where the network, the second largest in Mexico and which, along with Azteca, control 80% of the free TV programming, was paid a minimum of $10,000,000 USD to raise his profile while governor of the state of Mexico, and in addition, used public funds to do.
The Yo soy 132 movement arose as the students of Ibero raised these questions to PN at a campaign stop, which proved a terrific embarassment to his campaign which responded by accusing the student questioners as outside agitators and provacateurs. The students responded by showing their Ibero student ID cards on the Internet, and the rest is very much as Dan LaBotz has written.
