Swiss journalists receive death threats over soccer violence issue...

Five journalists from Swiss tabloid newspaper Blick who have written about the growing violence in Swiss football stadia received death threats by text message, the paper's publisher said Friday.

Four sports writers and a crime reporter were threatened by anonymous calls and messages overnight Thursday and found dead fish left in their letterboxes Friday morning, said a spokesman for the publishers Ringier.

Posters bearing the pictures of three of the five people, along with their private telephone numbers, were put up along the road used by the reporters' children to go to school. Full story...
