The Mexican "Miracle": What U.S. Media Missed

EXTRA! (5-6/95)

By David L. Wilson

Abstract

Analyses how U.S. media's enthusiasm for the program of austerity, privatization and unrestricted trade favored by the U.S. political and corporate elites, contributed to its missing the story of the Zapatista rebellion. Mexico was the model for this policy and there was simply no room for stories that might show the darker side of the "Mexican Miracle."
