Mexico newspaper stops printing after reporter shot dead

3 hours ago


A regional newspaper in Mexico says the violence against journalists and the lack of punishment for those responsible is forcing it to stop printing.

In an editorial, Norte de Ciudad Juarez said Sunday's edition would be its last.

However, the paper says it will continue to operate online.

Miroslava Breach, a journalist who worked for the paper in Chihuahua city, was shot dead last month.
