On the occasion of the statements of the former mayor of Cartagena and MC spokesman, José López, today in the Palace Hall in which he has doubted the honesty and impartiality of local media professionals, and has even refused to answer questions to a journalist, the spokesman of Citizens in Cartagena, Manuel Padín, has wanted to express his deep rejection, give his public support to this union and demand that José López publicly apologizes, "today we want to reaffirm our conviction that the media in Cartagena work with absolute professionalism and intellectual honesty, to say the contrary by the mere fact that it has been reported on the investigation initiated by a judge because it found reasonable evidence for four crimes of corruption in the express purchase of the Hotel Peninsular is to be untruthful. "

Ciudadanos wants to remember that it is not the first encounter of the ex-mayor of Cartagena.

In May 2016, according to a digital newspaper, he publicly insulted and challenged a journalist from La Verdad after signing a couple of articles critical of his management at City Hall, "sometimes we give two guns to a monkey, and other times we are wrong and we give him a pen "he snapped at the journalist and then, when the editor asked for explanations, to challenge him to fix it on the street.

The Official Association of Journalists of the Region of Murcia has already criticized on several occasions the former mayor of Cartagena for insults and threats against journalists working in Cartagena and called for "urgent rectification of his attacks on the press."

"On the disqualifications, belittles and insinuations that border on the plaintiff that makes in the municipal Plenary and in the mass media against the members of the groups of the opposition it is not necessary to continue insisting, they are public and well-known" has explained the spokesman of the orange training that ensures that "if he did when he was mayor of Cartagena, it does not seem that he will correct his attitude as a councilor satia of the opposition."

The spokesman has announced that his Municipal Group is studying to register for the next ordinary Plenary an institutional declaration or manifesto in defense of the impartiality and independence of local journalism.
