Gosh, so happy to have had great students this semester! Great ideas and pieces. I wish them the best in their journalism pathway. I'd be glad to have many of them as PhD students, but they are in love with journalism, so it's better to leave them to find their way.

Caramba, se nos fue un pensador de la comunicación mundial. Pocos quedan hoy como Mattelart. RIP
Armand Mattelart fue un maestro de generaciones, un motor intelectual y es una referencia insoslayable sobre geopolítica y comunicación.
Gran parte de sus libros son de acceso libre en la red que estudió, entendió y criticó.
Una gran pena su muerte. Lo vamos a extrañar mucho 🖤
