Analyze this text and find the contradictions, biases and fallacies in a satirical manner: The new book by the author of Los Señores del Narco is already in circulation , it is a new work that falls at this moment like a bucket of cold water on an electoral process marked by violence and because it is titled The Secret History: AMLO and the Sinaloa cartel .  

As expected, it has caused a stir and President López Obrador and the most well-known journalists related to the 4T come out to demand in unison: evidence, evidence, evidence.

The understandable silence of Anabel Hernández lets the book speak for itself, it no longer belongs to the author, it belongs to the readers who, thanks to a free electronic version, are surely reading it thousands to see what new information it offers to take the pulse of violence and even for more than one person to decide how to vote on June 2. 

I am one of those readers who see with amazement the interested accusations against Anabel, who is not only asked for evidence, but is accused of “playing into the hands of the right” when she is not described, without further ado, as a character from the political right. When she, in this text and in interviews given in recent years, has said time and again that she is only an investigative journalist and that she is not up for the highest bidder, she does not make a distinction as to which party or character is in power. 

That there is proof of his investigations into corruption during the Government of the PAN members Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderón or that of the PRI member Enrique Peña. 

And precisely because of these investigations, which have been a great editorial success and have rewarded him financially, he had a deep impact on public opinion and his new work arouses an expectation, perhaps greater, than the previous ones because it involves the acting President who arrived at the National Palace with the offer of the fight against corruption and corruption arises in their family and political environment. 

The last case is that of Rocío Nahle, former Secretary of Energy, former director of the Dos Bocas refinery and today Morena's candidate for the governorship of Veracruz, who is questioned by businessman Arturo Castagné, who has discovered properties inside and outside of her. from the country. 

Even above their income, which is equal to or below “what the President receives” in the face of the silence of the Workers Party and the defense of the presidential candidate, Claudia Sheinbaum. 

However, it was not always like this, as Anabel narrates in the introduction of The Secret History: AMLO and the Sinaloa Cartel , President López Obrador as an opponent, upon seeing the success of her journalistic pieces about previous governments, did not stop praising her for the contribution they made to the fight against corruption in the public sector of PAN and PRI members. Private businesses that were carried out at the expense of the treasury. And the findings fit the President's justice story like a glove. And for this reason, as she herself tells it, she tried to sign her up for the nascent Fourth Transformation. And Anabel flirted with the idea and she agreed to meet with Epigmenio Ibarra, John Ackerman and Rafael Barajas “El Fisgón”, until she decided to distance herself from them. The praise and invitations to present her books in Morenista circles followed, which she accepted because, simply, every author always looked for readers. 

But the time came to stop, not to return to them and the praise decreased, and she dedicated herself to doing her research work and new books, lectures at universities, interviews and collaborations with the German production company Deutsche Welle came along that distanced her. 

And more so from the Morenistas, especially when he stressed that his thing was not politics but investigative journalism. That he was not interested in partisan politics. That from his trenches he made a contribution to the democracy of our country and that he would continue in this even at his own risk.  

Then she became suspicious. Who do you work for? Why do you have access to gringo sources? Why do you live outside of Mexico? Why does her book appear at this time when there is a campaign where there is talk of a #narcopresidency, of a #narcocandidate? Not only those from the first media circle of Morenoism wondered, but also exponents of the segment of the so-called “critical and independent journalism” seeking to damage their image.   

I have heard some of them who even play the rhyme of "evidence, evidence, evidence" disqualifying their work, saying that Anabel is dedicated to collecting and publishing gossip, that it is not serious journalism and I perceive in them a mixture of envy , impotence, mediocrity, misogyny.

Without considering, at any time, that this type of journalistic investigation, in addition to being brave and meticulous, is not definitive – not even the investigations carried out by social science academics – that it walks the path of collecting evidence and testimonies that reveal the contours of a rugged, major, dangerous, useful topic, in the case of this type of journalism to approach the logic, dynamics and psychology of the characters of the organized crime cartels, both those in boots and hats and the of suits and ties that pass through public service. 

In short, Anabel Hernández's new book could be criticized as a work of the right and against the left of Obrador, only we will have to look back at how appropriate her previous works were for a society that is very concerned about issue of security, the empowerment of the cartels, their brutal participation in the electoral processes and the reach by their representatives of positions of political representation before an authority that is omissive, incapable, of the most basic thing, which is to capture or neutralize those who descend, threaten and they murder operators, leaders, candidates.
