Remarks by the President of the Center for Labor Studies, in an interview to the newspaper Tiempo Argentino per day of newspaper boy. By Hernán Cocchi
Union general secretary of Canillitas charged at Clarin and La Nacion for not respecting the day that celebrates its activity.
Sunday is celebrated Canillita Day, which was first held in 1947. During the decade of 1990 and thanks to the strong lobby of the media hegemony, no longer a holiday for the newsboys, distributors and graphics workers. "It is remarkable that even during the dictatorship these things have happened, "said Cristina Fernandez on September 8, in reference to the situation experienced during the government of Carlos Menem, to sign the decree which reversed the deregulation of the distribution of newspapers and magazines.
Beyond the restoration of the holiday, Clarín challenge the presidential decree and the street will bring an issue. Speaking to Time Argentino, Plaini Omar, secretary general of the Union of Canillitas, could not conceal his indignation.
- How will Clarín and La Nación to be on the street Canillita Day? "In terms
logistics, obviously can not use our system, which is the traditional direct distribution system. They can not use this route because thanks to the decree of President Cristina Fernandez have priority over sales and distribution channel. Probably use labor for a day, which shows that these people have no desire to agree with the workers. And that for 50 years, no newspapers published on this day. For some time we began to claim the 7th of November as a day of fighting.
- Who will be in charge of distributing free newspapers? "Surely
temporary work agencies, which is a form to outsource. I have understood that this year will give the newspaper. In my view, this demonstrates the capricious attitude of the publishing sector.
- What is today?
-day for us is a vindication. For 50 years rested newspaper vendors, journalists and lay the graphics. This was one of the conquests that concentrated groups of arbitrarily took away communication in the '90s. For us it means a day of vindication of law and fight, especially since we have only three days a year to rest, being that we work 125 days more per year than other workers (in addition Canillita Day the only holidays that has the Guild are on Christmas Day and New Year).
- What does political reading of the attitude of La Nacion and Clarin do not respect this holiday?
"In 2006, when we got to the guild, we started with our demands. When we started the fight against groups like Clarin and La Nacion, was not yet installed in the society the idea of \u200b\u200bachieving the democratization of media and audiovisual services, and also the print media. It obviously started with the Media Law and the law that seeks to declare the public interest newsprint. "This advanced
by hegemonic groups, what does it mean to you?
"It shows that focus groups do not sit around and agree to agree, these people seek to impose. Is another example of corporate intolerance. When it comes to the rights of workers, trying to subdue. They make you partner losses but gains ever.
- Are they going to try to stop this?
"Let's rest. We will not enter these provocations. The workers have learned some lessons, and we're mature and have a degree of intelligence that allows us not into this sort of thing. Already submitted a note asking the Ministry of Labour follow the situation. We also want to know who will handle the job for that day. If informal work, not registered, you have to drop them to the fullest extent of the law.
"This year we returned some rights to the newsboys and the attitude of Clarín and La Nación can damage the relationship between the posts and the two major newspapers, do you worry that targeting of aid they received?
"Since we took the union's leadership have broken with all that. No notices were placed arbitrarily on us. Perhaps one is keep doing it, but we have taken the lead in this fight. No patronizing, That was before we assumed the leadership. In the past Clarín handled everything by remote control. Moreover, they wanted to spend the workplace to business and this is transformed into a camera. Peers do not even accept the delivery merchandising Clarín. Unless some distracted, anti Clarín is a very strong attitude, beyond that it remains the largest daily newspaper and selling. It was always the biggest driver of policies to try to break the regulatory framework that exists in the activity.
