Media Coverage of the Kroc Institute’s Report on the Status of Peace Accord Implementation on the One-Year Anniversary of the Signing of the Final Agreement December 6, 2017 The Kroc Institute’s Barometer project received widespread media coverage in Colombia and internationally for the presentation of its first official report on the status of implementation of the Colombia peace accord. The report was released at a press breakfast in Bogota on November 16, just ahead of the one-year anniversary of the signing of the accord and the beginning of the implementation process. Summary of coverage Between November 16th and December 4th, the Kroc Institute was mentioned 106 times in Colombian and international media, for an average of more than 5 press hits a day over the past three weeks. Some stories quoted the Kroc report and used its figures but did not mention the Institute by name, while others mentioned Kroc directly. Prominent coverage and in-depth analyses appeared in major Colombian media, including El Tiempo, El Espectador, Semana, Noticias Uno and Verdad Abierta, as detailed below. The estimated readership and viewership of mentions of the Kroc Institute in these media outlets of Colombia is 12 million people. Many of the press hits came from references to the Kroc Institute by President Juan Manuel Santos during his speech on the anniversary of the peace accord signing. The President mentioned Kroc three times and directly used a phrase from the executive summary of the Institute’s report, saying that while some assessments of the implementation process tend to show the glass half-empty, a comparative analysis shows “as the Kroc Institute says, a glass half-full.” Santos used the same phrase in his Twitter messages that day. That phrase was also picked up and used by FARC leader Rodrigo Londoño after a meeting with the President. This suggests not only presence in the media but influence with the main political actors. References about the glass half- full were all over the media during those days. Examples of prominent coverage Below are descriptions of the main Spanish-language press hits in Colombia: El Tiempo: The most important and widely read Colombian newspaper. The editor mentioned the Kroc Institute and some of the most important data of the report for an in-depth article in a five-page special about the first anniversary of the peace accords.
