		Then, Salinas's friend Roberto Hernandez, the banker, threw out the figure that had been previously agreed upon between the three banquet organizers during their breakfast at the University Club.
		The billionaires' pledges were a startling symptom of the massive corruption in Mexico's official circles--a world where publicly disclosed funds amounted to a small fraction of the fabulous sums that were moved under the table.
		Banamex banking tycoon Roberto Hernandez, the Salinas friend who had catered the PRI fund raiser at Ortiz Mena's home, was protected from foreign competition for the next fifteen years.

	DRUG WAR ON THE WEB Village Voice : 'Narco News' Ready For LibelSuit In
		Citigroup vice chairman Robert Rubin told the press that the deal was the result of an overture from Banamex chairman Roberto Hernandez Ramirez, who is worth $1.3 billion and has been promised a seat on the Citigroup board.
		Hernandez has denied the allegations since they were first reported in 1997 by the Mexican newspaper Por Esto!
		His lawyer calls the portrayal of Hernandez and Banamex as drug traffickers "utterly false," and claims that Giordano's comments "injured Banamex's business reputation"oa conclusion which seems especially odd now that Banamex has been snapped up by Citigroup for $12.5 billion.

		Forbes Magazine reported that Roberto Hernandez, who could not afford an American Express card in 1980, today earns the largest annual salary in Mexico -- reported as $29 million per year -- and is a billionaire who runs Mexico's largest bank.
		The legal powerhouse is "waging a battle to discredit media reports that [Banamex President], Roberto Hernandez Ramirez, is a drug trafficker whose activities are allegedly protected by powerful politicians in both Mexico and the United States," according to Metroland News Service.
		Thomas McLish, a lawyer with Akin, Gump, said, "Roberto Hernandez is a man of the highest moral character," according to the Village Voice.

		His cousin, Alfredo Harp Helu, whose fortune was estimated to surpass $1 billion, took a much larger chunk of Banamex stock and became one of its operating chiefs jointly with his longtime associate Roberto Hernandez, a new tycoon also worth over $1 billion.
		According to one report, Hernandez picked up his financial skills through his close association with Carlos Slim in the 1970s.(5) Another case of family connections in the 1990-1992 privatization of Mexican banks involves various scions of the Garza-Sada and Garza families, among the wealthiest in the dynamic northern city of Monterrey.
		Banamex is owned by a powerful group of billionaires and multi-millionaires who have emerged from the financial travails of 1995 and 1996 largely unscathed.

	A Member of Congress Defends Freedom of the Press and Free Speech in Drug War Lawsuit
		After having lost a lawsuit and an appeal in Mexico, Hernandez decided this year to throw his billions at the two journalists - who publish in Mexico - for successfully exposing his connections to drug trafficking on the Yucatan Peninsula and his relations with politicians including Bill Clinton, Vicente Fox and George W Bush.
		Because Narco News is a shoestring, non-profit project in journalism, the lawsuit on behalf of your billionaire clients threatens not only its continued publication, but also the freedom of speech on the Internet throughout the world, as the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) recently noted in its amicus brief on behalf of Narco News.
		If a billionaire client with voluminous resources disagrees with the words posted by a journalist of modest means on a web site, that client has ample resources to publicize its own side of the story.

		Roberto Hernández had been, according to the newspaper Por Esto!, the financial engineer of the Gulf Cartel, launched in the 1980s by Juan N. Guerra and based in the Texas border city of Matamoros, Tamaulipas.

		Indeed, this is why the billionaire vested interests in the "war on drugs" sued us and tried to destroy us.
		In Mexico, Hernandez, upon exposure as a "narco-banker," tried to have authentic journalists imprisoned, and he lost his court battles on 16 distinct occasions, in spite of the fact that he is, truly, one of the oligarchs and owners of the government of Mexico.
		And the poor little billionaire Roberto Hernandez and his mercenary lawyers behaved so poorly with their legal assault on Narco News that they inadvertently called attention to the need for legal protection for online journalists under the First Amendment, and provoked the New York Supreme Court into providing it.

		Giordano, never one to pull punches, told the Village Voice recently that Hernandez is hiding behind his bank.

		Among those dispatches has been a fair bit of investigative reporting: a piece detailing the various conflicts of interest that led to the resignation of an Associated Press correspondent in Bolivia, for example, and another on dark truths about Colombian paramilitary chief Carlos Castano.
		Narco News also has published the allegations of a Mexican journalist named Mario Menendez Rodriguez, who reported in his Merida-based paper Por Esto that Banamex president Roberto Hernandez Ramirez was a narcotics trafficker.
		Por Esto's reporters amassed evidence that drugs were being bought and sold on Hernandez's many properties in Quintana Roo, including interviews with local fishermen who claimed to be eyewitnesses -- not to mention the bags of cocaine literally washing up on the beach.

	Banamex loses bid to censor Narco News By Chuck Armsbury, Senior Editor
		We reported that Banco Nacional de Mexico (the National Bank of Mexico or Banamex, now owned by Citigroup, the largest financial institution on earth) had filed a lawsuit in the Southern District Court of New York State in August of 2000 against NarcoNews.com and its publisher, Al Giordano.
		In the suit, Banamex complained that Giordano and co-defendant Mario Renato Menendez Rodriguez, famed publisher of Mexico's Por Esto newspaper, had smeared and defamed Banamex and its CEO Roberto Hernandez Ramirez by publishing online news exposing the bank and its president as drug traffickers and money launderers - drug kingpins in short.
		In dismissing the Banamex lawsuit with prejudice, the New York Supreme Court did not accept Banamex' primary claim that NarcoNews.com is merely publishing stories of money laundering corruption north and south of the border in order to gain economic advantage over the huge bank.
