Talk:Luis Donaldo Colosio Murrieta

--

Death date
I just wanted to say the confusion about his death date was caused by a local news channel that just passed a Luis Donaldo Colosio: ten years after special where they stated this week it was his tenth year death anniversary. Sorry for the mishap!

 * Dude! Change news channels!! Were they the source for the very odd "flown to Houston in an air ambulance" claim, too? (Houston from Tijuana? With half his brain hanging out à la JFK?) In any case, it inspired you to start the article, which is what it's all about. Cheers! –Hajor 13:51, 24 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Song lyrics and legal issues
These song lyrics, con la cola entre las patas, is it reproduced here with permission? I'm going to say probably not, so I'll comment it out. –Andyluciano 04:54, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Reversing possible censorship
I restored the aftermath section, because it talked about the strange circunstances of the pick up of Ernesto Zedillo as the substitute of Colosio after his death. The erasing seems as a probable censorship, since the article is full of commercial propaganda (films, songs, etc)but lacks "controversial" subjects.

press coverage of Colosio assassination
To say there was no foreign press coverage is incorrect. A reporter and photographer from the San Diego Union-Tribune were there and witnessed the events in Lomas Taurinas.

I know because I was the reporter.

The "Spanish "pronunciation is wrong. That sounds very american.

something more accurate would be [luis ðoˈnaldo koˈlosio]

Translating From Spanish Wikipedia
I will be translating part of a section from the Spanish Wikipedia that I think gives readers a bit more context into why this candidate was important in the history of Mexico and remains a huge figure in the popular imagination. For my generation, he was a JFK/Nelson Mandela/Obama type figure, while his predecessor was more akin to a Nixon. The English article currently doesn't really get past a cursory explanation of the politics at hand. There are streets and monuments all over Mexico named after the guy, so I want the reader to have a better idea of why. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aozeba (talk • contribs) 10:06, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
