An Update On the Case of Emilio Gutierrez-Soto

An update on the case of Emilio Gutierrez-Soto, a Mexican journalist driven from his hometown by death threats from the military, which was acting on behalf of cartels. Gutierrez-Soto has been fighting for asylum ever since. He was almost deported in late 2017. Now, with a new administration, there is renewed hope for asylum in this case. Speakers include Kathy Kiely of the University of Missouri School of Journalism and Lynette Clemetson of the Knight Wallace Program at the University of Michigan. John Donnelly, Chair of the Club’s Press Freedom Team, moderates the program.
