Comments on: Peru: A Minister's Departure & War with Chile? http://globalvoicesonline.org/2007/02/28/peru-a-ministers-departure-war-with-chile/ The world is talking. Are you listening?

One day, the Presidents of the two countries are shaking hands like great friends. Then, the following day, there’s news about an incident on the border, or something that affects (as we see it) the peaceful coexistence between the two countries. We discussed this subject in an article (ES) in February, but it might be time to revisit the issue. [...] [...] Peru’s fluctuating relationship with neighboring Chile is conflicted.

What Lauer said was: “With a more playful spirit however, some blogs interested in the subject have begun to play with a hypothesis of war. As if it were a Playstation game”. Obviously, and surprisingly, Lauer did not completely understand the intention of post, or what it covered. As Silvio says: Creo que los periodistas peruanos tienen que aprender a respetar un poco más a la blogósfera. He visto algunos ataques gratuitos y maltratos que son difíciles de racionalizar. En otros países algunos importantes medios como CNN, CBS, Reuters, Los Angeles Times fueron pillados por los blogs mintiendo groseramente, tergiversando fotografías, inventandose noticias, etc. Estos medios tuvieron que reconocer su mala práctica y hasta algunas cabezas rodaron …. ¿Podría ocurrir algo así en el Perú? I think that the Peruvian journalists must learn to respect the blogosphere a little more. I have seen some gratuitous attacks that are difficult to rationalize. In other countries some important media outlets like CNN, CBS, Reuters, and the Los Angeles Times were overwhelmed by blogs when lying crudely, distorting photographies, inventing news, etc. They had to recognize their bad practices and sometimes heads had to roll … Could something like that happen in Peru?

I chose Peruanista because it means a foreign person who writes and studies topics related and about Peru. This word has been used since the XIX century, I believe.

Unlike Global Voices contributing author Juan Arellano, the Peruvian daily La República published an article about the online discussions surrounding a hypothetical war between Peru and Chile. Desde el Tercer Piso writes “next time with recognition, muchachos.” Gran Combo Club adds [ES] “I think that Peruvian journalists have to learn to respect the blogosphere a little more.” Silvio goes on to bring up cases in which bloggers have corrected news reports in the United States and wonders if Peruvian bloggers will one day also have such influence. Roberto of El Morsa echoes his denouncement in “Journalist from La Republica plagiarizes a blog.” David Sasaki [...] [...] Another case of a Latin American journalist getting a bit too much inspiration from the blogosphere without attribution.
