Ríodoce is a Mexican weekly dedicated to coverage of organized crime and the Mexican drug warinSinaloa, Mexico. The newspaper is based in Culiacán.

History[edit]

The paper was founded in 2003 by a group of reporters from the daily Noroeste, including Javier Valdez Cárdenas.[1]

In September 2009, Ríodoce published a series on drug trafficking entitled『Hitman: Confession of an Assassin in Ciudad Juárez.』One morning a few days after the conclusion of the series, a grenade was thrown into Ríodoce's office, damaging the building but causing no injuries. The attackers were never identified.[1]

In 2011, Valdez Cárdenas was awarded the International Press Freedom Award of the Committee to Protect Journalists, "an annual recognition of courageous journalism".[2] Later in the same year, the trustees of Columbia University awarded Ríodoce the Maria Moors Cabot Prize for journalism that contributes to "inter-American understanding".[3] In 2013, PEN International gave Ríodoce the "Excellence in Journalism" award.[4]

On May 15, 2017, Valdez Cárdenas was shot and killed by unidentified gunmen. He was the sixth Mexican journalist killed in 2017.[5]
