Vicente Calderón
Advisory Council
With more than 30 years practicing journalism on both sides of the border, Vicente Calderón understands as few others do the dynamic and complex region that defines México and the United States.
Today we talk about the new phenomenon of “All Terrain” reporters, but Calderón has a long and impressive career that has grown and evolved with the development of multimedia platforms where the best news content is produced and consumed.
Calderón started in radio in Tijuana and has accumulated experience and knowledge in Los Angeles as a TV news anchor as well as in San Diego, California, and Tijuana, Mexico, first as a reporter and today as editor of Tijuana’s first online news site, Tijuanapress.com.
He has developed news in English and Spanish, producing for CBS News and ITN of England or Al Jazeera America, as well serving as a correspondent for national media such as Milenio TV.
At the same time Tijuanapress.com is dedicated to the professional training and development of journalists and to the promotion and defense of freedom of expression on both sides of the border.
Calderón is also the editorial coordinator for Newsweek en Español in Baja California.
