On Wednesday, January 11, 2017, the Mexican daily, La Jornada, posted in its e-edition photos of an action outside of Trump Tower, New York City. Demonstrators carried placards and banners with slogans of RefuseFascism.org and images from revcom.us/Revolution. The posting included in part the following description: “Protesters against Donald Trump: A group of people protested against the U.S. president-elect outside of Trump Tower. The demonstrators chanted slogans against the magnate and held up placards with messages like: ‘Dump Trump.’” (The e-edition of La Jornada is the most read online newspaper in Latin America with 180,000 visits per day, and in Mexico, it has a national print edition with a circulation of 287,000 in Mexico City, and seven local editions in Guerrero, Jalisco, Michoacán, Morelos, San Luis Potosí, Puebla, and Veracruz. It was founded in 1984 to provide a press independent from the other major Mexico City dailies serving as government mouthpieces.)
