Topic:Media and Society
Media outlets are critical in capturing and projecting the perceptions of the U.S. and Mexican society and in doing so continue to play a significant role in U.S.-Mexico relations. The Mexico Institute has a long-standing project with U.S. and Mexican journalists that focuses on the creative approaches to coverage of each other’s country and the bilateral issues affecting each.
