Ana Maria Monjardino left CNN in October 2023, after deciding she could no longer reconcile her ethics with the organisation’s coverage of Israel and Palestine.

In this episode of The Walkout, Ana Maria reflects on her time inside CNN, the challenges of platforming Palestinian voices in mainstream media, why she ultimately resigned, and what she learned about journalism after leaving one of the world's biggest news organisations.

We also discuss independent journalism, impartiality and objectivity, and Ana Maria's subsequent reporting on Palestine-Israel in Latin America.
