3. The Nilo massacre of December 1991 received considerable coverage in the Colombian news media, print and broadcast alike, and in the immediate wake, despite the very limited information available, most of the reports referenced the narco-trafficking component as the primary factor behind the attack. Reporters and commentators repeatedly pointed to the Cali cartel as the intellectual authors of the massacre, avoiding any reference to the role official actors may have played. See, for example: http://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/MAM-211465, http://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/MAM-212991.

5. At one point, as I was going through these many news articles, I had Caracol Radio turned on, and over a period of about two hours, the same correspondent reporting from the Presidential Press conference came on at least four times, with dramatic soundbites from the President and Minister Palacio.
