Tony lives the “binational life.” This gregarious Televisa reporter who covers San Diego and California news grew up in Tijuana crossing the border to San Diego regularly for family activities. He became fond of broadcast journalism and doing sports play-by-play after receiving a tape recorder from his mother.
In this episode Tony shares the pros and cons of crossing the border daily for work, why residents in Tijuana care about San Diego news, how his reporting is lifting up the voices of Mexicans, and the way PR people can be more helpful to Spanish-language journalists. Plus, we talk sports and get the skinny on Tony’s favorite teams, including the Chargers (a bad word in San Diego).
