We have made the giant wolves return after 10,000 extinct years. The problem is that they “return” may not be the right word

by

The colossal company is known for its projects to Disxtinct Animals such as mammoth and dodo. However, the biotechnological company has announced its First success In a very different species: the giant wolf (Aenocyon Dirus) or “terrible wolf.” A first success. Colossal, the company dedicated to popular biotechnology for its efforts to return extinct species to life, has claimed to have achieved the feat With the giant wolf. Triple. Animals raised by the company are rather hybrid between this species and contemporary wolves, but the work can be a before and after in the efforts for Dextinction of species. Aenocyon Dirus. The giant wolf is not a wolf itself. This species belongs to the same taxonomic group (Canine) than domestic dogs, wolves, coyotes or jackals. It is estimated that they shared a last common ancestor makes about six million yearsso it can be considered a close relative in relative terms. This species inhabited the Americas During the late pleistocene. The most recent remains of these animals date from about 13,000 years ago. Romulo, Remo and Khaleesi. For now there are more doubts than the certainties we have about the process carried out by the American company. Something we do know is that the company has three young that were born in October 2024 and were baptized as Romulo, Remo and Khaleesi. Parallel processes. According to describes its own companythe recovery process began on two parallel paths. The first departed with obtaining the DNA of the extinct animal, something that was achieved thanks to remains obtained in a skull and a tooth of the extinct animal. In parallel, blood samples were obtained from a gray wolf, after which both DNA had to be sequenced. From there the processes join through the alignment of the two sequences. Once the available genetic information is combined, it is possible to “filter variants”, that is, to study the differences between the two species depending on their genetics. With this it is possible to edit the genes of the gray wolf, one by one, until it is resembled the giant wolf as much as possible (the team made 20 alterations in 14 genes in this phase). The final phases are those of the cloning process. Once the alterations have been introduced, a cell nucleus, it is introduced into reproductive cells. In this case, the company resorted not to a wolf but to a common bitch as the belly of the creatures to be born. The other Colossal plans. The colossal company is a usual on the covers thanks to its perhaps not so crazy plans of Dextinction of species. In your list of species to return from the beyond are The mammoth, The dodo And even the Tasmania tiger. What is at stake. Disxtinct Species is much more than an altruistic action: genetic information is information and this has an entire economy behind. During the UN conference on the UN biological diversity of 2022, One of the topics to be addressed It was in the digital information about sequences or DSI, the genetic information we compile from nature. In the genes of plants, animals and unicellular beings are the plans for the synthesization of very different compounds, some of them useful for example for the pharmaceutical industry. Until now, the question about To whom intellectual property belongs In a case like the Dextinction The mammoth was only theoretical. Now the need to clear these doubts becomes more latent than ever.

Brazil has taken 23 years to discover that its English judge Albert Lancelot Canterbury is called José and never left the country

by

Exactly 10 years ago, a decade, the media made the case of an Australian of Vietnamese origin famous. Its history today is part of that set of surreal stories that were born (and died) on the network. Apparently, the guy, called nothing less What Phuc Dat Bichhe was censored by Facebook due to his name (and his hilarious similarity with “Fuck That Bitch”). Unfortunately, the story in the end was too good to be true. In Brazil it occurred to the resemblance, but for 23 years nobody doubted Judge Edward Albert Lancelot Dodd Canterbury Caterham Wickfield. The “aristocrat” of the countryside. The short version: for more than two decades, the judicial system of the state of São Paulo housed a judge who did not exist. La Tarce: José Eduardo Franco Dos Reis, a Brazilian citizen, managed to pass public exams, graduate in Law at the University of São Paulo and exercise as a magistrate under a completely false identity: Edward Albert Lancelot Dodd Canterbury Caterham Wickfield, a name as extravagant as Anglophile. The farce began in the 80s, when two reis, determined to reinvent itself, falsified his birth certificate to present himself as a British aristocrat born in Brazil but raised in the United Kingdom. In 1995, already officially converted to a judge, the character consolidated with Press Interviews in which he narrated a fictitious childhood between English castles and noble lineages. An institutionalized lie. The really fascinating thing about this story is the time that has gone unnoticed by the authorities. The truth came to light in 2024when two Reis (even using Wickfield’s name) went to a government office to renew its identity document. Although all his legal roles were in the name of his alter ego British, the number of birth registration coincided with that of a Brazilian citizen. The crossing of fingerprints confirmed the suspicion: Judge Edward Albert Lancelot Dodd Canterbury Caterham Wickfield never existed. It was, in reality, a carefully built and sustained character for more than 20 years by “José”, a man who never left the country and who managed to deceive colleagues, institutions and control organisms without anyone questioning his story … despite the obvious theatricality of his name. An unlikely explanation. After discovering fraud, two Reis was summoned to declare. Then, the man appeared under his real name for the first time in decades, although he offered an even more delusional defense: he said that Wickfield was His twin brotheradopted in childhood by a couple of British aristocrats. Nor did he provide evidence or explain the origin of the names, although Media as Folha de S. Paulo They have pointed out the clear and obvious literary inspiration: from Sir Lancelot of The round table Even Mr. Wickfield from David Copperfieldby Charles Dickens. The Prosecutor’s Office formally accused him of ideological falsehood and use of false documents, but so far it has not been able to be located, so it has not been formally notified. A judicial fortune. During his career, “José” accumulated prestige, power and a juicy pension of more than $ 28,000 per monththe same ones that continued to charge even after his retirement in 2018. However, after the revelation of fraud, the Court of Justice of São Paulo has ordered the immediate suspension of his payments, an amount that only in February It would exceed 166,000 reais. No doubt, the case has left the stunned Brazilian public opinionnot only because of the magnitude of the deception, but by the dimension of the structural failure of the institutions that allowed a man to live under a literary identity, absurd and completely invented within one of the most monitored powers of the State. To the small screen. If you want also, the scandal is not only an anecdote of imposture, but a living metaphor of how the appearance, Language and authority can build parallel realities in systems that do not always require rigorous evidence to validate their pillars. The Wickfield-Dos Reis case not only ridicule the judicial system Brazilian, but reveals bureaucratic fragility against the imposted charism and a well -spun narrative (apparently). Plus: that a judge could be inspired by British literature to create their identity and exercise for decades without being discovered, it is both a structural failure and An institutional tragicomedy worthy of a Dickens novel … or a script that I could surely prepare the Netflix very.

500 million years of evolution separate us from sea stars, but there is something that has not changed so much: our appetite

by

Hormones are molecules that exert the functions of messengers in our body. They take part in a large number of physiological processes, among which are the food and digestion of the food we consume. Among them, we know several hormones that regulate appetite and satiety. Evolutionary History A new study has analyzed The evolutionary history of bombsin, a hormone capable of transmitting the signal of satiety to our brain. This hormone had already been detected in some species of vertebrates and we know that it is capable of exercising this function in humans. Now we have found the genes that encode these hormones in very distant species evolutionarily, such as sea stars. Bombsin Bombsine was discovered in 1971, not in humans but in an amphibian, the belly toad fire (Bombina Bombina). It is a small peptide similar to those used by our own body to transmit (among other “messages”) the sign that we have satiated, molecules such as glucagon, the gastric inhibitor peptide (GIP), or the peptide similar to glucagon-1 (LPG-1). The researchers who studied the bombsin verified that, by injecting it into mammals, this also caused a feeling of satiety. This caused the subjects to reduce the amount of foods they consumed and space their intakes more over time. Needle in a haystack. In his study, the team responsible for New Research, began to study the genomes of different invertebrate animals until it ran into genes capable of encoding hormones similar to bombsin. And they found them in several equinoderms species (Echinodermata), As for example in the common sea star (Asterias Rubens), but also in hedgehogs and sea cucumbers. “It was like finding a needle in a haystack,” explained in a press release Maurice Elphick, co -author of the study, “but finally we discover the genes that encode a neurohormone similar to the stars of sea stars and their relatives.” Arbn.After that, the team studied the function of this hormone, which they called Arbn. Through mass spectrometry, the equipment was able to determine the molecular structure of the compound, thanks to which they could synthesize it and submit it to test. Thus they found that the hormone had an impact on the gastric processes of sea stars. “When I put Arbn, I saw that it caused contraction in the stomach of the sea star,” Weiling Huang addedCo -author of the study. “This, Sig would, that Arbn could be involved in stimulating the stomach retraction when the sea star stops eating. And that is precisely what I saw. When I injected Arbn into the sea stars (…) it made the stomach retract (…). What is more, arbn also delayed the beginning of the food, since the stars injected with arb those that water was injected. “ The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). Making historians. The study gives us new clues about how our digestive system and its tools to control its internal processes evolved. A track that allows us to ride ourselves 500 million years ago, when the last common ancestor of humans and sea stars inhabited the earth. But the finding also has significance for the pharmacological industry. In recent years they have seen the rise of various treatments based on hormone analogous substances such as LPG-1 or GIP. Compounds such as semaglutida (better known by its commercial name Ozempic) or the tirzepatida (Tirzepatida) were born as diabetes treatments but achieved success as losing weight formulas. These compounds emulate the hormones that our body secretes behind meals, hormones that fulfill the function of communicating to organs such as the pancreas that our digestive process is underway but that also transmit to the brain the message that we have satiated our appetite. Compounds such as Bombsine, Arbn, or similar could perhaps be used also In this context. In Xataka | Japanese researchers have studied how to eat less.

A study has analyzed which cars are the ones that lose the most after five years and the clear answer: electric

by

You were young but there was a day when buying a Tesla was a round business. The demand was such and the shortage of vehicles so high that There were those who were willing to pay more money For a used tesla than to pay 10,000 euros less, commission it to the company and wait a few months upon arrival. The funny thing is that you were not so young. It was something that happened in 2022. First in the United States and then in Spain. Who was going to tell us now that the company dealt with a painful salesin which it is difficult to discern how much there is temporary with the renewal of the Tesla Model and and how definitive. Especially in countries where the issue is very sensitive, Like Germany. But, obviously, this is not the usual situation. In fact, if your idea is to buy an electric car and change it shortly (three/four years) it is very likely that it is a bad decision. Because, in general and except for very specific circumstances such as the previous one, the electric car is the type of car that is most devalued. A car for many years If you are thinking of getting an electric car, there are two especially interesting formulas. The first is called Renting. Although it is a formula in which more money is paid than with a share of a loan for the purchase of a car to use, it is a good option if you are not very sure of whether the electric car is for you and you do not want to mortgage in the very long term. The second option is to buy an electric car and You keep it as much as possible. If a car does not give problems this is always the best formula to save money but, in the case of a concrete electric car of an electric car, the more kilometers do, the more they fill the battery at low power and more time keep the car the best result will give. This is because yes, How we tell you in this articleyou can load the car at home, you can be saving about five times more money than with a day -to -day gasoline car in fuel consumption. Especially if the use is intensive or almost exclusive in the city. To this is added that, with the passage of the kilometers and the years, reviews, oil changes, filters and, ultimately, replacement of all types of mobile parts that in an electric car are non -existent, are accumulated in a combustion car. A taxi driver can confirm that it is good savings. But the electric car is a problem if you want to change vehicles or technology after a few years. Because, according to the portal ISEECARSspecialists in second -hand sale in the United States, the electric car is the type of vehicle that is most devalued. According to its calculations, an electric car loses 58.8% of its value after five years. The figure contrasts with those collected for other types of vehicles. A hybrid loses 40.7% From the value of the last car a five years and, on average, a car loses 45.6% of its value. The data leave the sale portal and the cars sold there, monitoring 800,000 vehicles sold between March 2024 and February 2025. If the car is not electric, the type of car that is most depreciated is the luxury car. When there is a combination of both values, the result is fateful. The Jaguar I-Pace is the car that has suffered the most depreciation in the last five years, reaching 72.2%. It is followed by the BMW 7 Series (67.1%) and the Tesla Model S (65.2%). Among the 10 cars that depreciate the most we find the Nissan Leaf or the Tesla Model X. The rest are luxury vehicles. It makes a lot of sense Although it may seem bad news, the high depreciation of an electric car makes a lot of sense. And, in fact, the data is better than in previous years. In ISEECARS They point out that the same study in 2023 signed a depreciation of the electric car five years ago 49.1%. It was a lower figure because The price of second -hand cars shot During the Covid-19 crisis and the posterior Shortage in the supply chain. The figure, however, remained the highest of any other type of car. But in 2019 depreciation reached 67.1%. That this figure has dropped out that more buyers are willing to get a second -hand electric car. A sign that there are more electric cars in the market and that the plaintiffs trust more in technology. Although Buy a second -hand electric car It should not be very different than doing it with a combustion car (in fact, in terms of mechanics, it should be easier), it is logical that those who have never had an electric car are reluctant to enter technology with the acquisition of a second -hand vehicle. In addition, the rapid innovations that the sector is living while more competitors arrive that reduce prices cause cars to lose greater value against combustion cars. The promises of new most ambitious batteries and RECHARGES TO RATIMOS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO IMAGINE They are especially relevant to those who are willing to jump into the electric car but prefer to wait a bit to the new models. Cars now bought are devalued to a greater extent because the qualitative leap of buying a new car will be higher than changing a gasoline used by a new one. It is normal that with technology in full development, the current car is obsolete more quickly. It is something that happens in all types of markets Until a technology reaches maturity.

50 years later the amazing thing is not that Microsoft continues to exist. The hallucinating thing is that it remains (Tan) relevant

by

Does 50 years Two young people called Bill Gates and Paul Allen They created the one that has become the largest software empire in history. That April 4, 1975 was born Micro-Soft. The name occurred to Allen, what years later I didn’t remember why he used the script and that capital. The detail has remained in anecdote. One of the thousands which are already part of the history of a company that has managed to be relevant and toe for half a century. There are not many in the world of technology that can boast something like that. How did you do it? Windows 10: 9 very useful and little known tricks Reinventing himself. Microsoft has been lifted after each fall. And there have been many. And very important. But it was not so at the beginning. Microsoft, like all the big ones, was loved long before being (deeply) hate. Gates and Allen were in the right place and moment, but they also knew how to take advantage of their opportunities. The first arrived in 1980, when they reached an agreement with IBM to provide the operating system for its PCs. It is curious how history is repeated again and again, because that is just what would happen to that operating system that would end up calling themselves. Gates and Allen did not create that operating system: they bought the original, QDOS/86-dos, for $ 50,000, and modified it so that it could be used on the IBM PCs. Apple did the same with Nextstep (based on FreeBSD) When he bought Next and ended up turning that operating system in Mac OS X. years later Google would buy a small startup called Android Inc. to take advantage of an operating mobile system that he had created. That said. The story ended up. But those are other stories. That agreement with IBM was a turning point, but above all it was for its terms. Microsoft received $ 430,000 for that product – very less than Ibm hoped to have to pay – but Microsoft maintained the ability to sell its operating system to other companies. From that moment Microsoft was a rocket. One controlled by a Gates implacable and fierce. With their lights and their (many) shadows, Gates and his company would soon begin to achieve the goal that They had marked and that a priori seemed impossible: put a computer in each home. It did not matter others doing things in a different or better way: Microsoft always managed to impose itself. He did it with MS-DOS and of course he did it with his long and erratic Light of Windows operating systems or with its office suite, Office, today maximum expression of the intention of how everything can (but should not) become a service in the cloud. For 25 years, Microsoft was no one to cough him, but then the earthquakes began to arrive. First, Internet, browsers, search engines and social networks. Then the smartphone. Redmond’s company lost all those wars. Always late and bad, and he was convicted of that Innovative dilemma in which David wins the game to Goliath. But there is the really amazing. Microsoft fell and lost those wars, but he got up again and reinvented. Even those that had won – like that of the browsers, With Internet Explorer– He ended up losing them, but we insisted: it didn’t matter. There we saw the true strength of Microsoft. It didn’t matter if the general public hated her: they did not give up and tried one, and another, and again. They failed with bing in search engines, they had to spend 26.2 billion dollars to “compete” on social networks and also shipwrecked (Too bad) With Windows Phone. And once again, it didn’t matter. Faced with these failures, new successes. Not only that: definitive reinvention. After the arrival of new contendliere NadellaMicrosoft changed the image and of strategy. Of being hated and almost ignored it was relevant and even loved. He got it shyly In the mobile segment, but where he has achieved an exceptional triumph has been in the cloud, where Azure marks the pattern with his great rival, AWS. And since then and along the way, many more stories, many smaller and large failures and also many small and large hits. It is impossible to put them all here, but it is also inevitable not to mention legendary products. Among them the Xbox, pillar of a very forty bet But not especially fortunate For the video game segment. Or also the successes that the company also achieved with the devices of the Surface family. The Hololens were Another failureYes, but one that at least showed that the company always tried to reinvent himself. In those is precisely now Microsoft, but this time not to lose what may be the most important train in history: The artificial intelligence. His reaction thus has been faster and more ambitious than on other occasions, but still the unknowns about the result of that bet are enormous. Whatever happens, it will probably give the same. And it will give the same because Microsoft will end up doing what you have always done. Reinvent yourself. Happy 50, Microsoft.

Apple and Samsung have been fleeing from China for years to save costs. Tariffs just torpedo their strategy

by

The Trump administration has announced New tariffs. Some that expand the Commercial War to even more countries and that, inevitably, will have severe consequences in the production and distribution chain of large technological ones. Some of them, such as Apple or Samsung, had been trying to reduce their dependence on Chinese manufacturing, moving part of production to countries like Vietnam. A new tariff of almost 50% for countries like Vietnam has just launched its strategy through the air. The new tariffs. Donald Trump has announced a new set of tariffs for all those products that are imported to the United States. The most affected is the main commercial enemy of the country At the moment: China. Adding previous movements, tariffs to the Asian country amount to 54%. Attending to the rest of the victims on the list, there is a country that is specially injured: Vietnam. The United States has imposed a 46% tariff on one of the barracks of the two technological giants, Apple and Samsung. China’s escape. The production of Apple and Samsung products has been linked to China for years. To reduce this unit, both companies have been trying to diversify the supply chain Moving manufacturing to countries like India or Vietnam. This last country has become one of the most attractive destinations for large technological ones, mainly due to their economic but highly qualified workforce. Its port proximity with China also makes it a strategic point, minimizing friction when importing electronic components. Key products. Apple has been manufacturing the AirPods for years of Vietnam, and the assembly of some key products, such as iPad, has been starting its steps in the country for a few years. Some of its strategic business partners, such as Foxconn, They have been investing for years millions of dollars in the Asian country. More relevant if possible is the case of Samsung, who produces much of its phones in Vietnam. The Korean company has been betting on this country for almost 20 years, having consolidated as one of the main producers of electronic components and devices in the country. Leaving Vietnam, pointing out that India was another strategic points in the supply chain of both manufacturers. One in seven iPhone is already manufactured in Indiaand Samsung carries Since 2018 giving life to Galaxy devices in this country. No one was prepared. Apple and Samsung had been moving production out of China for years not only to minimize costs, but to avoid the consequences of the commercial war between the United States and China. Diversifying the supply chain was key to avoid depending on a single region, as well as to bring production closer to emerging markets with great growth margin. Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, India … Each and every one of the alternative destinations to China will suffer a very high tariff load. After years of strategy focused on running from China, the new tariffs make the foundations they had been building for years staggered. And the question is clear. What consequences will they have? Who will pay the duck. Although it seems unlikely that both companies kindly invite consumers to accept an increase in the cost of between 26 and 46%, which seems inevitable is that the products of both manufacturers rise in price not only in the United States, but globally. The tariff storm will force a complete readjustment of the current margins of the main Big Tech, since they will have a significant impact on the global supply chain. Voices of the sector, like Mark Gurman, point out what is “essentially impossible” That there is no price increase in the United States, and members of the Federal Regulations Code (CFR), they point out that these rates will mean an increase in about $ 150 per device.

For years, “fecal doping” is a problem in elite sport. Now science wants to democratize it

by

In 2019, a team of scientists from Harvard University monitored bacterial flora of 15 Boston Marathon runners during the previous and the posterior week. They made many discoveries, but one especially interesting: after the competition everyone suffered a significant increase in bacteria of the genus Veillonella. It was already known that exercise Altera the microbiota And, in fact, it was not especially surprising that these bacteria (which break the lactic acid and, therefore, reduce fatigue) were in there. What they wanted to discover was something else. Therefore, they took samples of that flora and introduced them into mice. The result was an increase in very significant physical resistance. Since then, there are people trying to take advantage of this. The treasure that hides the intestine. Now a France team has studied the intestinal microbiota elite athletes with high aerobic capacity (soccer players and cyclists). The central idea was to see if there were differences in the composition of the flora and in its functionality with respect to non -athletes. The first surprise is that the more sport the subjects were doing, the lower the diversity of their microbiota. And I say it is surprising because, as Rosa del Campo tells us Through SMC Spain“This is associated with an unhealthy condition.” However, in this case it seems that “it is justified with the specialization of these bacteria in the intestine.” That is, by submitting the microbiota to more exExigent environments, it is self -appointed to optimize. However, As he says The Ramón y Cajal hospital researcher is not the most interesting. “The most striking thing is when they evaluate the ability to reproduce this in mice.” What have they done? They have taken very sedentary and very athletes and “have transplanted their feces to mice for several days.” The result shows that “aerobic effort capacity in mice is conditioned by the microbiota.” Because? Although research is still preliminary, everything seems to indicate that “it is mainly due to glycogen consumption, good sugar control and production of short chain fatty acids.” What implications does this have? Well, it seems that enough. Remember that for years the anti -doping agencies work to fight against microbiological doping. In fact, everything seems to indicate that “Fecal transplant“s a usual practice in certain elite sport environments. But the question, as always, is whether this can be climbed. If we can begin to intervene in the microbiota in a massive way to improve the health of large layers of the population. For years, the boom of probiotics has caught Als great pharmaceuticals with the changed foot and has flooded the market with pseudoscience. However, the possibilities (as we see) are on the table. It is increasingly silent than health will be conquered with the stomach. Image | Julien Tromeur | Miguel to Amutio In Xataka | This pill is a peanked but can save your life

The James Webb has found a galaxy when the universe was 330 million years old. Hide an entire enigma

by

The immense capacity of the James Webb space telescope (JWST) to see the confines of the observable universe also allows us to see how our universe was billions of years ago. Recall that, the finitude of the speed of light implies that what we see further in space is also further in time, which makes JWST a kind of time machine. JADES-GS-Z13-1. The James Webb has detected again the light emitted by a very distant and therefore ancient galaxy. The telescope has captured the appearance of Jades-GS-Z13-1 as was 330 million years after big Bang. So old and distant is that its observation implies a new enigma: the enormous density of the universe in that era should prevent its observation billions of years later. And light was made. The original universe was a dark place. If we go back enough, we will reach an era in which the universe was too dense for the light emanating from its particles to travel the space. The cosmos cooled as it expanded, so, when the photons had space to move around, there were no particles to issue them. The thing changed when hydrogen atoms began to join to form the first stars and galaxies when the universe I was a few million years old. In this long process it is called reionization, a byloys in which hydrogen clouds were reactivated and emitted new light. Even in this context, the universe was dense enough to part of the radiation of these first galaxies was overshadowed by a dense layer of neutral hydrogen. This is the case of Lyman-Alfa or Lyman-α. Redshift 13. The team studied the luminous spectrum of the galaxy to estimate its red shift or Redshift. The expansion of the universe means that, in the long run, the frequency of the light emitted by this galaxy is reduced, that is, the universe, when expanding stretches the electromagnetic waves as if it were a magnet. This causes the visible light to store towards the red tones and to the infrared after long trips. The level at which the light comes “stretched”, its value Redshiftallows us to estimate the distance at which the galaxy is found that the broadcast. The observations made from the JWST Nircam instrument allowed the team estimate value Redshift of 12.9 (either z= 12.9) For this galaxy, but to confirm this value, the team decided to study the complete spectrum through the Nirspec instrument (Near-Infrared Spectrgraph), also aboard the space telescope. It turned out that they were infrastiming their distance, which was closer to z= 13. Lyman-α. However, the spectrum study caused the team to detect something strange in this galaxy, at a specific point of the spectrum, the Lyman-α radiation lamade, a type of electomagnetic emission associated with hydrogen atoms. The broadcast captured by James Webb’s instruments was much more intense than it should according to current cosmological models. The details of the study have been published In an article In the magazine Nature. Two possible explanations. In his article, the team speculate with possible explanations To this anomaly. The first involves the possibility that the stars of the galaxy, which would have been some of the earliest in the universe, would have created a “ionized gas bubble” around the galaxy. This possibility would imply that the primal stars would have been “more massive, hotter and more luminous” than the stars formed in later stages of the universe. This possibility would give us new clues about the enigmatic population of stars known as Population III and that represents precisely these early stars of the universe. The second possibility implies the existence of a supermassive black hole in the center of an active galactic nucleus.

We have been making the most horrendous crimes in entertainment years. We have said enough with ‘the hatred’ by José Breton

by

The José Bretón case, resurrected years after his conviction because of the publication of the Luisgé Martín ‘El Odio’ bookhas taken a new turn. On the one hand, The Prosecutor’s Office has appealed against the publication of the book And he accuses Anagrama of not facilitating the book, as was his obligation to arrive. And anagram, almost simultaneously, has decided to paralyze the distribution indefinitely. This extraordinary event generates countless questions: why ‘hate’ and not other previous books? What does the case of José Breton have particular, why is he considered culturally unacceptable? Will the True Crime To the Spanish from now on? It will be unpublished. The book that reconstructs the crime of José Breton, which murdered his two children in 2011, will finally not reach bookstores. Anagrama has published a New statement in which he states that “voluntarily, he remains in his decision to respect the request for the precautionary measures requested by the Prosecutor’s Office to paralyze the distribution of the work.” They also regret the pain that the information about the publication may have caused to the mother, Ruth Ortiz, and ensure that works such as ‘hate’ require a double dose of responsibility and respect. Reaction against. Anagrama has encountered a strong reaction to ‘hate’: not only In social networks and in The bookstores themselves There have been movements against the book, but opinioners of every sign have manifested In favor and against of the edition. Undoubted issued a few days agoand in which they claimed their right to publish ‘hate’. If the murders themselves opened at the time the debate and the condemnation of vicaria violence that Breton had exercised over his wife, this book has done so with a much more complex theme: the freedom of the press and expression in front of the right to the honor of those affected by the text. Voice to the murderer. It is indisputable that ‘hate’ makes something rare: give voice to the murderer. But it is not absolutely unpublished: innumerable documentaries that interview prison murderers have done so previously, and documentaries as the very prestigious’The Act of Killing‘They have won all their fame precisely because of the reflection on the criminal personality that arouse the first -person reflections of the genocides that appear in it.
