The back-and-forth between The New York Times and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum continues, with the publication having the last word —for now— about their reporting on how fentanyl is produced in clandestine laboratories in Mexico.
The feud started when the American publication released an article on Dec 26 in which two NYT reporters and a photographer recounted their experience of visiting a fentanyl lab in the city center of Culiacán. In what looked like a makeshift lab, two cooks explained the production process and were photographed using normal pots and pans to cook the deathly drug.
