“Season 1 was absolutely amazing and illuminating! It was fascinating listening to them put the pieces together and build relationships with witnesses, second hand accounts, and official accounts. Fantastically illuminated the sort of world that existed and how journalism works.
Season 2 is asking a very specific question in a very complex setting which seems to be making everyone upset. They’re not investigating every aspect of the Cuban Revolution, the cause of the Cuban economic crises, and the US and USSR influences going on at the time. Their focus is on how the US treated the Cubans who came and how truthful the media was being at the time. I’ll trust them to dig into it at a later time but I’d appreciate some more explanation on WHY people were leaving.
But overall, this team of journalists should be proud. They do a great job of digging for sources and gaining their trust to dig further into a good story.”
