Cartels, Conspiracies, and Camarena
True Crime
The use of social media has become an integral part of the operation of Mexican cartels and has expanded their reach and influence in new and profound ways.
In this Episode, I look at the narrative themes in the cartel's social media presence, as well at the specific operational strategies and objectives fueled by social media.
I also examine the Combating Cartels on Social Media Act of 2023, a bill currently pending in Congress.
Finally, I discuss current trends in cartels' social media use, and the propaganda "boosts" often unintentionally provided to cartels by news and other media outlets.
