Description

President Claudia Sheinbaum wants to stop foreign governments from being able to run offensive ads and seeks to revamp Mexico's outdated telecom laws, including making broadband internet more accessible and increasing community access to airwaves, but corporate media, the Mexican opposition and some critics are accusing her government of censorship. Co-hosts José Luis and Kurt discuss the new law before Congress. Plus a look at two good pieces of news: recent numbers that indicate Mexico was the best in the region at reducing poverty and Mexico's economy remains resilient despite global uncertainty. And in Losers and Haters, we challenge Ernesto Zedillo's laughable effort to paint himself as a champion of democracy.
