Produktbeschreibung

Profile of TIMERMAN, JACOBO (1923-1999). Argentinean journalist. Born in the small Ukrainian town of Bar, he migrated to Argentina at the age of five with his family. During the years 1948-50 Timerman was a member of the editorial board of Nueva Sion, a Socialist-Zionist left-oriented biweekly published in Buenos Aires. He achieved his first great success with the news magazine Primera Plana (1962-66), followed by Confirmado (1965-66), both inspired by Time and Newsweek. In 1971 Timerman founded the liberal newspaper daily La Opinión, on the model of Le Monde, and edited the paper until it was shut down by the military regime in 1977. Between 1973 and 1976 La Opinión had been closed on a few occasions, because it campaigned against the right-wing populist supporters of the anti-Semite minister José López Rega as well as the neo-fascist squads known as Triple a (aaa). La Opinión was one of the few important newspapers in Argentina to extensively denounce government corruption, state-tolerated anti-Semitism, and the Junta's flagrant violation of human rights during the repression.
