2. Telling details, as the owner of Clarín herself took some Dirty War victims' children.
It will be good to learn more about it, hope ALL the facts will be revealed. It certainly tells people where Clarín is coming from in its perspective, and where it stood during the Dirty War: firmly behind the torturing, terrorizing, murdering right-wing bastards.
Argentina case evokes ‘dirty war’ memories
By Jude Webber in Buenos Aires

Just as Argentina jailed its last “dirty war” leader, a bitter political row has flared over whether the children of the owner of the country’s top media group were stolen from people who disappeared under the military dictatorship.

The emblematic case, mixing human rights abuses perpetrated by the 1976-83 junta with the high-profile barrage of attacks between media group Clarín, the judiciary and President Cristina Fernández, illustrates how the country’s past continues to cast a long shadow over the present nearly 30 years since the return of democracy.

“This case is one of public interest. It goes beyond a private case,” said Gastón Chillier, executive director of CELS, a leading human rights group.

Felipe and Marcela Noble Herrera, both 34, broke their silence last week with a full-page advert in newspapers and a television appearance, saying they feared they had become “pawns in the onslaught” against Clarín, owned by their mother, Ernestina Herrera de Noble.

On television, Marcela Noble Herrera said the “government is pursuing us and pressurising the judges who have to resolve our cause” instead of taking issue with the delays in resolving a matter “that would bring peace to three families”.

Right-wing paper, of course.
