David Brooks, corresponsal y jefe de buró de ‘La Jornada’, recibió la “Mención Especial 2026” de los Premios Maria Moors Cabot, el galardón internacional de periodismo más antiguo, otorgado por la Universidad de Columbia.

El jurado reconoció sus más de tres décadas reportando sobre Estados Unidos para lectores de México y el hemisferio, su enfoque en los migrantes como protagonistas políticos, económicos y sociales, y su columna semanal ‘American Curios’.

En su discurso, Brooks citó a Monsiváis y señaló que cubrir Estados Unidos hoy implica temas similares a los de América Latina: corrupción, impunidad, desigualdad, drogas, violencia armada y hasta un intento de golpe de Estado.

Reivindicó el principio de ‘La Jornada’ de “dar voz a los sin voz” y afirmó que “los inmigrantes son la nota del siglo”. Dedicó el premio a sus colegas de La Jornada, a su directora Carmen Lira Saade y a los periodistas atacados o fallecidos en México, Gaza y Estados Unidos.

00:07Gracias a todos los candidatos y los administradores de la expectativa de reconocimiento de un grupo de Dajonado.
00:15Y, sí, es plural para la razón, pero la jornalismo es still colaborando en el plazo.
00:21Y, porque de eso, el reconocimiento que se han compartido con la otra U.S. correspondiente de Guadalajara, la directora
00:29Carmen Mirasave, la directora de Guadalajara, y muchos otros panelistas de Guadalajara.
00:36I'll confess that at this moment, in this place, Adolf Wilson-Bice, one of our founders, famous world, best describes
00:47my daily state of mind here if I cover the United States.
00:51O ya no entiendo lo que está pasando, o ya pasó lo que está malo.
01:01It's been said by Lee Havel that the first reporters were those in prison or claims who would take orgy
01:10and then turn to the caves and then come out and look forward to the rest of the community, what
01:16they had seen, what they had heard.
01:17So, the lives of the community literally depended on the veracity and precision of the news reporting.
01:24Was there not a piece in there? Was there a rabbit? A dragon? Was there water? Was there anyone else
01:30in there?
01:30What did they say? How did they add it?
01:33By the way, you know, it does feel a little re-escortering the United States these days.
01:41As we cover the U.S., we find some very unsurprisingly similar themes to what our counterparts were about by
01:48the American,
01:49including my country, Mexico.
01:52Massive political corruption, impunity through major crimes, growing inequality,
01:57an enormous drug problem of armed violence, and even an attempted coup.
02:05We are delighted, and we are obligated to cover the elite debate of this country in the caves of Washington
02:12and New York.
02:13That's not the whole story about his distant and close neighbor.
02:18Where does it reveal Guinness a little bit?
02:21To do that went with a number of the struggles and the fears, the hopes, the great surprise,
02:26in the streets and places and fields of places like Georgia and Florida and Texas and Nebraska,
02:34and the universe is inside the great cities.
02:38And as a Mexican correspondent, you not only find Gringo support, but the long history of immigrants everywhere.
02:46Immigrants are the story of the century, I would say.
02:50And of course, you have to cover the arts and reveal the essences of any peoples including the United States.
02:57I must say that I never imagined that to report on the U.S. I would have to use the
03:02works.
03:04The F word, fashion, and socialist.
03:10And we have to use that with this very gentle way of reporting right now, of politics now.
03:16Suddenly I feel like I'm mad at the Latin America or some European country.
03:21As all of us here well know, it's the worst and best of times for journalism.
03:28The attacks on journalists, political and physical, are incessant.
03:33Some of my colleagues have already mentioned.
03:36For all of my colleagues in Mexico who have lost their lives, along with those more than 200 compañeros in
03:46Gaza,
03:46and the colleagues here in the United States that are under attack.
03:50This recognition is dedicated to all of them.
03:55La Pornada was founded 42 years ago by the guiding principle of giving voice to the voiceless.
04:02To tell the stories from above, to contribute to the democratization of the nation and the world.
04:08And La Pornada, maybe here we know and celebrate journalism as a collective effort.
04:15And that we all must join to take that torch into the caves, once and again, together.
04:22For all of us here, the fragile future depends on this collective effort.
04:28Thank you.
04:29Thank you.
04:30Thank you.
