-Good morning! Young people, good morning!
You're obstructing traffic!
Bill 28 prohibits manifestations,
at this time, in this area!
-What are you talking about? I've just got here!
-That they're blocking the press, not letting them record or take photos.
That's what we're talking about!
Without notice, they started to march and pushed him
And, for some time now, they're giving preference to the senate's own cameramen.
-Members of the press, if you have something to say,
we're gonna have to ask you to move to the right.
You're endangering your security and ours.
Lenin, please, move to the right!
Hilda!
Move to your left! Please, Hilda!
(They don't consider the cost of living.)
(The poor youth will not afford to study,)
(and the rich will remain owners of the University.)
(*** that!)
-I'm looking, I'm looking.
-Press! Record this!
-Press! Be alert!
(Students, take action!)
(They're taking away your rights!)
(Students, take action!)
(They're taking away your rights!)
-You're telling me that there's a mandate
that says that anyone who's not wearing a state-issued Press badge,
is prohibited from sharing the area with the rest of the corporate media?
-Well, the media has complained about people here who aren't part of the press
-That's not the question.
-I'm gonna answer it however I want to!
-The question is: Are they gonna sabotage us,
the members of the alternative press,
and colleagues from the corporate media
that are not accredited by the State Department?;
because the State doesn't have to regulate journalism.
So, I'm asking: Are you going to stop us?
-I'm going to explain it simply,
everyone has the right to free speech everyone has that right.
No! Get it off my face! Get it of my face!
-I'm doing coverage. Don't touch me! Don't touch me!
-Get it off my face!
-Would you please answer the question?
-I'm gonna answer, but you have to put the phone down!
-Come on! Come on!
-The first thing I'm gonna say is that everyone can exercise their right to free-speech
Whether they're journalists, students or whomever in a democracy.
Second, when my rights are violated...
My rights begin where yours end and vice-versa.
When freedom of speech
affects someone and violates their rights
then, we have a problem!
-You're not answering the question, we're talking about the State Department's Press badge.
And I can repeat it again and again.
-It's not my job to hand out the IDs
-You're not gonna answer?
A few minutes ago, you said that we're not allowed to pass...
-Hello?
-Sir, please! Please, I'm from the Press!
-They're pinning me against the fence!
-The officer is pushing me with his shield!
-Are you seeing this?! Are you seeing this?!
-Get out of the way! Please! Please! Please! Please!
-Easy! Ok?!
Please! Lady, move!
Thank you! You're very kind!
-He tried to break my equipment, you know? He hit my equipment on purpose!
-The press has a right to film! -Thanks! Thanks! Of course!
-What's this?!! Let me out!!
-Lady, please, get out of the away!
-Don't push! Don't Push!
-He pushed me! I have his picture!
I'm gonna identify him and press charges!
These are federal laws!
-Please, press, give us a moment until we leave. Press, a moment until we leave.
Just a moment, until we leave. Please.
-Come on! Come on! Don't defy them! Just Don't!
-I don't want to sin! I don't want to be arrested in vain!
I wanna know what will happen if I go in, because I'm going in.
-They have their own strategy. They have a job to do, you understand?
-That's fine, we respect that. So, why won't they respect us?
-They have a job to do, just like you.
I'll speak with the colonel now so it won't happen again, Ok?
-If we interfere, then we...
-Are you gonna investigate this aggressions against journalists on duty?
-I have no knowledge of such aggressions.
-But are you going to investigate?
-No one's told me about a complaint.
-So, they would have to file a complaint?
-We've managed the culprits every time there's been a problem.
-I'm having problem:
They're not recognizing my reporters from Dialogo, and are kicking them out.
There's no perimeter.
There's no "designated area for the Press".
-Yes there is!
-I'm sorry, but that doesn't exist in Puerto Rico.
-Whenever there's an intervention the press has to move to their area.
-That doesn't exist! It just doesn't! -Verify it with your colleagues so you can see it's true.
-You can't tell us where to do our work.
-You have to decide: You're either with the press or the protest.
-I'm not part of the protest. Give me the same respect I give you.
-I'm respecting you. I'm just telling you about the protocol.
-I'm a journalist.
-The thing is we have to see every case in particular.
Obviously. I repeat: during the whole student conflict we've always cooperated with the press.
When this incident happened, which we're gonna consider an isolated incident...
As soon as I knew, well I personally let the press inside.
The instructions are to let the press be; without interference.
Now, we have to *** each case by its own merits.
There's gonna be times, much like this particular incident,
when the press isn't going to be allowed inside; maybe.
The thing is: we're gonna have to see each case by itself.
But I want you to know that, obviously, Puerto Rico's Police Force has instructions:
Avoid obstructing the press at all times.
Please move aside! First call! First warning!
Press, please, for your own safety...
Students, move to the left!
-We're aware of the conditions we face by coming here.
-I understand that.
-But the police can't tell us when or where we should do our jobs.
-Nobody said that.
-If the riot-squad marches forward, well, the colleague who chooses to stay knows what he'll face
But you know you can't tell us how to do our work
-Yeah, but like you said whoever stays, stays at their own risk, you yourself are saying it.
-But you have to warn us
-I just got here, I can guarantee from now on...
If everything is done in an orderly fashion... but things are not being well organized,
neither from the press nor from the students.
Nor from the police, nor from the police, nor from the police!
Rivera, excuse me, excuse me!
Don't worry about me, I'm fine
(The press has to leave, the press has to leave,
to the side for your own security!)
***!
Confirmed; they're lacrimonous gases and my face itches like hell.
I can't see
***
No, they have the road blocked.
I'm walking towards the University.
I'm near the main gates.
***, my face itches like hell. 139 00:08:26,000 -->00:08:27,000 *** ***.
There's a lot of police everywhere.
There's students. . .
There's a lot of students running up University Avenue. The students are trapped!
Yes, yes, ok I'll go, I'll go, I'll go. Ok. Bye!
