Clarin was in it up to its dirty nose, and further. Owner/publisher good friends with the dictatorship. Hideous history behind the media, even people in the US can learn about it themselves from simply researching the subject.

What a shame generations arrive too quickly to keep important elements in view. A lot gets swallowed up quickly by rapid departures and arrivals.

Very interesting info. regarding the margin of victory. Didn't know about that. Thanks.
