Strictly Personal
The Inspector Clouseau

On Monday afternoon there was a meeting especially in Los Pinos to define how to approach communication about the disappearance of Diego Fernandez de Cevallos. The prevailing thinking in government, in this and in the case of the fight against drug trafficking, is that the problem is messenger, so who is to control is the messenger. Coincidence or not, at night Televisa announced in a surrender part of their social responsibility not to broadcast anything back until the official report on the case. With the hegemony of 7 out of 10 television screens on all day in the country, seems sufficient. Not so.
If Televisa shut or silent, does not solve the problem of the federal government's social communication, as in Case Fernandez de Cevallos has entered a new crisis. Information gaps that lasted for hours on Saturday, opacity in the official versions, inaccuracies, gaps and contradictions, have been part of the catalog spoil how political communication and confuse the company over the past four days. Who undertook to step up and take the shrapnel, was the spokesman for the PGR, Ricardo Najera, whose behavior is not cause but because of inadequate federal matter.
Najera has done everything possible with the tools at their disposal. The result has been, to say the least, pathetic. For the sake of argument, let's take what happened on Monday, when he toured the electronic media during the day to preach the word of the PGR, which is the government. Since starting the day began smoothly. Some sample buttons are: 1 .-
Hours before the EPR disclaims any action against Fernandez de Cevallos, Najera ruled that his disappearance was the work of an armed group. What his statement was based? "Based on that he declared was no big deal about the departure of Diego in there," referring to the time of his disappearance which did not arouse suspicion or stealth produced witnesses. In other words, since no rockets, gunfire, screams and when she disappeared sombrerazos Fernandez de Cevallos, there was an armed group.
For Najera, the argument was not the method, but the decibel level recorded. Begs the question: since when High impact kidnapping is under the sound of fanfarreas? Is supposed to do professionals who base their action on the surprise and the possibility of undetected leaks to carry the victim to a safe house. Therefore, no personal take, which claimed the spokesperson is nonsense.
2 .- The famous scissors. In an interview with Carlos Urdiales in the noon news on Radio 13, Najera was asked about the scissors PGR said that they were in the place where he disappeared. What kind of scissors? What size? Najera said he did not know that detail, which certainly is not minor. It is not the same as the scissors are used Fernandez de Cevallos to align the beard, to slaughter a chicken. Therefore, it is unknown whether these scissors were used as a defense weapon, or if they were to attack the character, or if you have nothing to do with the case and mentioned only as part of the inventory in the van of the lawyer. Nájera
fought at the question. I do not know, said, but investigators, whose inquiry, he said, has no access. So little is repeating what they say, without understanding the federal government if they provide important data to understand what might have happened at the time of the disappearance, must provide support to clarify and explain why it is relevant the object. When you do not want to arouse any doubts that off, and encourage speculation that wish away.
3 .- The famous spot blood count, or blood they found. In the same interview on Radio 13, Najera was asked if the stain was on the famous scissors or scissors on the spot. Are not answer drops of blood? It could be the case that the vehicle that fell into a pothole while arranging the beard and pierced with scissors. How big is the stain?, Because if it had a diameter of 30 centimeters, say, one would assume that is a pint of blood, which could not be the result of an accident but an injury of another nature. Have you found inside the vehicle? Was he outside?
spokesman repeated Najera did not know those details. If you are not ready to make the meaning of that figure, why make it known? The bloodstain is one of the key pieces to shed light on what might have happened in this strange incident, and weaken the hypothesis on the health status could be found that person who lost blood, is not confirmed Fernandez de Cevallos is, "and if indeed there was violence or not at that time.
The PGR has said it does have elements to assume a scene of violence, but so far has offered nothing solid to back it up. This is not to build a story about the case said, as Paulette, but the statements and the assumptions are built from the clues and evidence. If Najera does not have the tools at hand, what is the purpose of having a spokesperson that far to guide the dislocated information?
What are unwilling to clarify and explain, better than silent until they are ready for questions, because what is happening in the federal government is in contradiction to his wishes. Misinform, do not inform, confuse, not clarify, feed the rumor, did not stop him, lose credibility, not gain. They have not learned. The Inspector Clouseau in communication leading Mexican government's social long, ride free.
