Dear friends:
A cyberaction launched this week requires the end of persecution of the
Brazilian journalist Lúcio Flávio Pinto. The journalist faces several
criminal and civil lawsuits because of his reporting in the state of
Pará. Big Brazilian corporations, like the C.R. Almeida and the ORM
group, are responsible for most of the lawsuits. See more in:
