Journalists who want to make the voices of the Red-shirt heard like Julalak Phukerd and Satien Janthimatorn facing ther second storm in their carreers (the first one was in 1976). Yesterday (Apr 17), Matichon dismissed Julalak from managing editor post and ordered Julalak and Satien not to write in support the Red group anymore. If they insist to write in support of the Red, they would not be allowed to write. Julalak decides not to write as, she said, she couldn't do anything against her belief. At the same day, Chutima of Daily News was ordered by her boss that she must not write any piece in support the Red movement. (Chutima has her column under the name "Dao Prakaiphruek".)
