LA PRENSA ESPAÑOLA va obteniendo el reconocimiento internacional que merece, a juzgar por este artículo sobre el trabajo de los corresponsales extranjeros que han estado cubriendo el conflicto en el Líbano:
Rinat Malkes, a reporter for the Brazilian newspaper O Globo, manages very well on the ground without the Foreign Ministry's stories. "Everyone here thinks that Brazil is just samba, soccer and sex, and they don't understand why the war is of any interest to Brazilians," she says. "They simply don't know that the largest Lebanese community in the world outside of Lebanon lives in southern Brazil, hundreds of thousands of people. So far dozens of Lebanese with dual citizenship have been killed in this war, and the government of Brazil is trying to organize a rescue mission. So is it any wonder that this story is making headlines in Brazil, too?"Rinat es, además de periodista, una blogger bastante conocida.
Malkes, who is Jewish, came to this country four years ago and holds dual citizenship. She gives quite low marks to her colleagues who have arrived here only recently: "Most of the foreign reporters came here with a very low level of knowledge. The only thing they know is that they are on the Israeli-Lebanese border. Beyond that, they really are not au courant about the mess. Yesterday, for example, I was speaking with a reporter from the Spanish newspaper El Pais and what she said still grates on my ears. She said that she couldn't understand why the Israelis can't sit still for a single minute without killing anyone. This annoyed me both as an Israeli and as a journalist. I tried to talk to her, but when I saw how much knowledge she lacked I just stopped and walked away."
