Story Mexico is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists. More than 200 journalists have been killed or disappeared since 2000 and in 98% of cases, justice is never served. On March 24, the International Day for the Right to the Truth, Article 19 launched "The Shooting," in collaboration with La Unión, a local newspaper founded by Moisés Sánchez - one of the many journalists murdered for reporting the truth. This campaign turns a deadly statistic into a human story, with a powerful metaphor: "shooting" as both pressing the shutter of a camera and pulling the trigger of a gun. Through this campaign, we exposed the violence journalists in Mexico face every single day.

AI Description The ad prominently features a dark, gritty urban scene showcasing an old yellow car approached by a figure holding what appears to be a camera or a gun. This image starkly contrasts the weapon's destructive power with the power of truth as symbolized by the camera. The somber and tense atmosphere underscores the danger journalists face, particularly in Mexico, a theme reinforced by the text "Truth Isn’t Bulletproof,” emphasizing the risks involved in seeking and reporting truth. It's a powerful visual metaphor about the ongoing violence against journalists, urging viewers to consider the high stakes of freedom of expression in hostile environments.
