Milagros Leiva

The record for Milagros Leiva is one of endurance in a single newsroom rather than a shelf of trophies. More than twenty years at El Comercio is a tenure few Peruvian reporters match, and it came before she ever appeared on camera. Her second act, hosting a Sunday political interview program on one of Peru's national broadcasters, put that accumulated reporting experience in front of a mass audience. The 2026 Liceo Naval episode, whatever its cost, made her the subject of national coverage in a way her interviews rarely did.
