Reporting On The Drug War In Columbia

Everywoman

Available for over a year

Violence is part of daily life in Colombia, where the drug industry continues to grow - but journalist Jineth Bedoya Lima has continued fearlessly to report on this, despite being kidnapped, tortured and raped. She talks to the show about the challenges - and dangers - of her job. Also on the programme: Reflections on the history of the corset. Plus, a look at the respectable British woman who stripped off for charity.
