  1. 1. 10.000 Horas En La Silla Vacía

    A behind-the-scenes chronicle of an independent Colombian news outlet’s first decade, weaving investigative stories about power brokers, corruption networks, electoral machinery, and the armed conflict with reflections on journalism, digital innovation, and the challenges of holding the powerful to account. Through case studies, field reporting, and mapping of political clans, it shows how transparency journalism can reshape public debates, while candidly recounting the newsroom’s mistakes, ethical dilemmas, and the perseverance required to build trust and impact in a polarized democracy.
