Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

ARGIA has awarded Zugazart's strips of opinion for:

"On June 3, 2019, he published his first work in the Opinion section of the newspaper, along with the other pillars. In recognition of the trajectory of his predecessor he wrote: “With whom they deserved rigor and acidity. With affection and tenderness”. And we would say that these words also apply to themselves.

Labor strikes, attacks on the Basque Country, Enrique Maya, bertsolarism, Basque political prisoners, police, decadence of Osakidetza, hand of Irulegi, which Iñigo Urkullu has said and done... and facts from Palestine, Ukraine or Brazil. Write and draw daily in black and white, often with humor, but with the pencil very sharp.

It is able, with a couple of brushes, to get our readers to make our vision of reality, because what it teaches us is more credible than reality itself."
