An Expert On My Shield

The woman I will talk about is Alejandra Matus. She is a Chilean journalist who has worked in Chilean media such as La Tercera, La Nación, La Época, among others. She has also published books such as Doña Lucía (2013), Mitos y verdades de las AFP (2017), Los Archivos del Cardenal. Casos reales (2011), El libro negro de la justicia chilena (1999), etc. This last book was censored by the government of the time, and she was also accused of violating the State Security Law. Because of this, she had to go into exile in the USA. Currently, she is academic at the Universidad Diego Portales and a panelist on the news tv show Pauta Libre on La Red.

I like her because she is a journalist who criticizes the current context of the chilean media, and also a journalist who has lived firsthand the injustices of the system, then she understands what it is to be violated by it.
