Mayabeque, Cuba_ In May, 1884, in the newspaper La Nación, in Buenos Aires, Martí published: "The press is the guardian of the homeland."
On the occasion of the commemoration, on March 14, of the Cuban Press Day, the reporter Maydelín Remón spoke with Andrés Machado Conte, a journalist for Radio Rebelde and Radio Camoa.
Machado Conte has many reasons to make every day a new and interesting journalism. When José Martí founded his great work, the newspaper with which the necessary war was to take place, he named it Patria on March 14, 1892. It is a work in which all these reasons concur to found the essence of a people to rediscover and re-encounter us.
Member of the cultural staff of Radio Rebelde, among the acknowledgments he treasured is that of cultural journalist for the work of all life,José Antonio Fernández de Castro.
This lover of the life and work of the Apostle, of the wars of independence in Cuba, assures that the life of the journalist goes through education and sensitivity, that there cannot be a field of knowledge, of nature and of the human condition that the professional of the press does not dominate. Not only dominated, but explained and also shared. The journalist must be all discovery, all work. Every task must be shareable, diffused among his brothers and thus a great family is born.
