Dangers faced by Journalists in Mexico
The growing strength of the cartels in Mexico has given drug traffickers increasing control over police, prosecutors, and judges… even entire towns. Powerful cartels have reached into nearly every sector of society, including the press. For journalists covering the raging drug war, it has become a deadly beat. Many have been silenced through murder, threats and intimidation. Reporters feel they can’t do their jobs. Since 2000, more than 60 journalists have been killed in Mexico. What’s worse is most of those murders go uninvestigated and unpunished.
Kaj Larsen follows two brave journalists, who despite threats, continue to report on drug traffickers and government corruption. Don’t miss Deadly Beat, one of three in-depth stories in one riveting hour hosted by CNN’s Randi Kaye and Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
CNN Presents premieres Sunday at 8pm ET, re-airing at 11pm and 2am ET.

Narco Wars: Murder in Honduras
It’s a country with the highest homicide rate in the world, where you can literally get away with murder because so few serious crimes are solved. As a result, it's become the main corridor for cocaine coming north from Colombia. That nation is Honduras. Along with its neighbors Guatemala and El Salvador, it's the deadliest region on earth.
CNN’s Kaj Larsen takes you to homicide scenes, meets coffin makers, and embeds with police operations that barely hold the line against the region’s powerful street gangs.
He also introduces you to brave people trying to make a difference, from the outreach workers for Doctors Without Borders – who walk the most violent streets in the world - to the officials fighting the region’s endemic corruption.
