Changes on TV or just coincidence?

a couple of hours ago I had the pleasant opportunity to witness an act rarely takes place in a television program: the confession of a young man named Juan David with his drug problems. He knew
win audiences with its many artists, who had a girlfriend and family behind and a day to day life came down with an arrest for an investigation of micro-trafficking, apparently nothing new under the sun in this society, and truth is that until there seemed to be the downfall of another one, a public figure, but in the end was just one more. Until I win my respect and admiration when he was able to stand after 5 days' imprisonment, of the greatest humiliations newspaper (The Fourth and the latest news) and collective social rejection, before the cameras of the program who shot to fame "Red" (a program that always hated by the rest, because like all the others of their kind, they like playing with the feelings of the participants) but this was different, he went voluntarily to tell his problem, their pain, social disgrace, that well could sink even more, but it was so true, was so emphatic in showing that it was horrible and that is sick, that it actually dignified, and better yet, not made this a farandulezco act, but rather a lesson for all those young people suffering from loneliness, marginalization and fear, could understand it all fall, even bigger, but really the important thing is to stand and serve aggravate the pain caused. Justice was especially diligent and successful in their decision, and Chile's National Television channel proved to be a serious and responsible when it comes to be, faced with a problem that does not look or suffering, just shut up until it bursts. Ojala
be a lesson to the press, all of us that we started to die much more insignificant things than that, a lesson for the authorities to get to know the weakest against the drug and ultimately serve all people of good will that mean that we are human and that before looking at the speck in your neighbor's eye we see the huge beam that we have in ours.

The intellectual and political policy paper


I believed important to write about what happened between the presidential candidate, Michelle Bachelet and historian, Alfredo Jocelyn-Holt. Breaking the Impasse contingent and wondering is it really worth insulting a public person from another public forum, even though you do not have the status of "political" as is generally thought to be done?. My answer is yes, it is certain that the candidate can be paper or a simple "media effect", however I can not stop thinking about the lightness of the argument, because it ends with a semi serious conception we have in Chile on institutions, only to reduce public issues to what made the Lord of the picture ... to end the political and paint a world plagued by authoritarianism, may sound strange, but good accounts, if we keep putting the finger at politics and politicians the issue will be irreversible, and heaven confessed caught us back to a second great dictatorship in less than two centuries.
Finally, what remains is back again to remember how much we cost a lot to get a democratic respect for our country, and the cost we understand the game of democracy. Is too large for an "intellectual" but try to put another finger in the wound of democracy (which is on the political side.) I do not justify the mediocrity and false campaigns is simply that some can not but express our discomfort with some hotheads who feel their frustration when day after day and year after year are as they lose power and popularity, and even worse, become more useless ...
