Christiane Amanpour has spent four decades as a celebrated journalist and war reporter. With disinformation rampaging through the media, she talks about the threat of technocracy, Donald Trump\u2019s second term \u2013 and why facts are more important than ever<\/p>\n

Just occasionally, in more than 40 years of reporting the world\u2019s troubles, Christiane Amanpour has forced herself to step away and pause for breath. One of those moments for rebooting came over Christmas and new year, when she took a holiday in South Africa. I met her on the day she got back to work at the CNN offices in London, from which she makes her nightly news programme, and Saturday\u2019s The Amanpour Hour<\/a><\/em>. There is a powerful sense of her team buckling up for the tumultuous year ahead. \u201cWhat I cover is the international reverberations of what America does in the world and what might be coming back at America,\u201d she says. \u201cThe good, the bad and the ugly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amanpour\u2019s choice of holiday destination was, inevitably, not unrelated to the immediate challenges of that role as kickstarted by the second inauguration of President Trump this week in Washington DC. Before that she wanted to holiday somewhere, she suggests, that represented a robust spirit of hope. She had always regretted missing out on perhaps the greatest good news story of our lives: the release of Nelson Mandela from 27 years in prison and his subsequent rise to power. \u201cI was covering all the really bad stories, the Rwanda genocide, the Bosnia war,\u201d she says. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve always felt a little sad I missed that, because I do strongly believe that good things happen in this world. I don\u2019t ever want to only focus on the bad. South Africa is obviously still a huge work in progress, but it was just phenomenal to see it, even as a holiday.\u201d<\/p>\n
