Description

2022 saw the highest number of Mexican journalists ever killed in a year. The murders of Lourdes Maldonado Lopez and Margarito Martínez last January sparked an outcry in a string of murders that have largely gone unsolved. We’re revisiting our episode with Mexican journalists about how safe they feel while covering the news there, why there are so many murders of journalists in Mexico, and what's being done to protect them.
