Coverage of Drug Trafficking and Organized Crime in Latin America and the Caribbean

The book, “Coverage of Drug Trafficking and Organized Crime in Latin America and the Caribbean,” captures the intense and violent working climate journalists face on a day-to-day basis, one that spawns self-censorship and questions of how coverage can better inform the public. It is a result of a gathering of journalists, academics and experts at the 8th Austin Forum on Journalism in the Americas held at the University of Texas at Austin in September 2010.
