This was highlighted by Mayor Francisco Azcué, during this Friday morning, at the ceremony held at the Mariano Moreno Square.
Mayor Francisco Azcué led the ceremony for Journalist's Day this Friday morning, which took place at the Mariano Moreno Square, where he recalled the “patriotic actions carried out by a hero like Mariano Moreno, with the creation of the Gazeta de Buenos Ayres, which allowed us certain important achievements related to our independence”.
The Mayor highlighted the role of the journalist “which is essential, at this moment in our history, in which we have a huge opportunity to move forward, beyond the difficult situation we are experiencing. I convey to you all my respect for the noble task you carry out, as you are very important in our community, and I encourage you to continue seeking the truth and transmitting information”.
As a corollary to his speech, Azcué remembered and paid tribute “to the journalists who are no longer with us, many of whom I knew and with others I had the privilege and honor of having worked, such as the case of Leandro López” who worked in the Press area of the Municipality.
