Monday Nov 20, 2023
Born in Mexico to American parents, David Luhnow (@davidluhnow) returned to report on the country for decades. Luhnow talks about the tectonic shifts in Mexico and yet, how through all this time, the country's institutions continue to fail. The mental toll of years reporting on Mexico's drug war contributed to his leaving to become the current United Kingdom bureau chief for The Wall Street Journal. Also, he gets punched in the face.
Countries featured: Mexico, Panama, Iraq, Egypt, United Kingdom
Publications featured: The Mexico City News, Reuters, The Wall Street Journal
