Is Trump’s America scaring fans off the World Cup?
About this episode
The episode discusses the decline in international tourism to America and features an interview with Sarah Wynn-Williams about her book and experiences as a Facebook whistleblower.
America is the only major country where visitor numbers fell last year. In fact it had its worst year for international tourism since 2008- barring the pandemic. Are tourists scared? Or has Trump put them off? Is this why Trump's Ambassador for Tourism is on a whistle stop tour of Europe drumming up business before the World Cup? We speak to the US Special Envoy. Later why was a Facebook whistleblower silenced on stage at Hay Festival? We bring you Sarah Wynn-Williams - full throated and in vision - discussing her book Careless People in her first and last interview. The News Agents is a Global production.
