The Press Association of Almería condemns the attack on journalist Salvador Rodríguez Moya

March 20, 2009

The Association of Journalists and the Press Association of Almería (AP-APAL) have strongly condemned the attack on Salvador Rodríguez Moya, formerly a journalist for the Olula del Río.

The journalist, who now works for the Radio Television of Andalucía (RTVA), was attacked while he was researching the death of people at a company of marble.
The two organizations said the attack demonstrated the hostile working conditions of journalists in a society where democratic values are not respected and the need to inform the public is often frown upon.
