PODCAST: Interview with Nick Valencia, CNN Spanish Desk Editor

We had a fascinating conversation this evening, talking about some of Nick's war stories as a young journalist in Mexico, the challenges of finding good news sources, the threat posed to journalists who cover these stories, and the rise of social media as a way to get real uncensored news out of the country.
