Digital media outlet from Michoacán, Mexico, reports death threats

“Since May 6, the journalistic platform Portal Hidalgo [based in the state of Michoacán, Mexico] received [...] a warning to stop publishing against the country's President, under threat of silencing the journalists of that site. Jorge Hidalgo, head of the media outlet, is already evaluating the way forward.

[...] In an interview with Quadratín, the journalist explained that they usually receive many offensive messages. [...] This situation, he said, has intensified over the last four weeks. But in the case of this message, it was a more direct threat against life and it is something that cannot be ignored, he said, so he made the decision to make it public."
