Elsewhere in Mexico: I realize that few members of this list watched the
"Miss Universe" contest from Mexico City on Monday night. I wouldn't have
either but family members had it on the television.  There was a rather
long (and very bad) segment about Chiapas - lauding it as a tourist
destination.  I wonder (perhaps John H knows): were there any protests
against the contest in Chiapas when they were filming segments for the
show?

In solidarity, Jerry
  
You are right Jerry, I did not watch Miss Universe. Two short comments:
Original location for the event was Oaxaca, the organizers changed because reasons everyone can understand after reading article by John Ross.
Miss US was booed by upper middle class on the event. I think because migration issues.
