MPAA's Glickman in Mexico to fight piracy

MEXICO CITY -- The U.S. motion picture industry and the Mexican government have embarked on a cross-border partnership in the battle against Mexican film pirates, who raked in $140 million last year, MPAA president Dan Glickman said at a news conference Wednesday. Glickman's anti-piracy mission to Mexico included a meeting with Mexican President Vicente Fox as well as a tour of one of the Mexico City's crime-ridden black-market areas, where he was able to acquire a pirated copy of his son's movie. Glickman later told reporters that Fox had designated top government official Eduardo Sojo as a point person to coordinate enforcement efforts between the Mexican government and the MPA, the MPAA's international counterpart.

Getting a firsthand glimpse of Mexico's back-street traders, Glickman -- accompanied by bodyguards -- toured Mexico City's Teapot neighborhood, which he later described as "one of the world's largest black markets."
