During her videotaped interview with the Miami Herald’s Editorial Board, in which members of the newsroom like me participated, I asked Republican congressional candidate Maria Elvira Salazar about her position on President Donald Trump’s Cuba policy.

Salazar said she liked that Trump “has changed the rules of the game” and now when people like Madonna want to go to Cuba to celebrate their birthdays, they have to stay in a Cuban home instead of a hotel owned by the Cuban military and buy cigars not from government stores but from the people.

Trump should “do even more,” she said, “and fulfill what he’s promised.”

Should Trump start conversations with Miguel Díaz-Canel, Cuba’s newly appointed president, I asked her?

From Maria's Wikipedia:

Career
Salazar has served as Senior Political Correspondent for Telemundo and as Central American Bureau Chief and White House and Pentagon Correspondent for Univision. She has also worked as a news anchor for Mega TV and hosted a political news show called Maria Elvira Live.[4]

She began working as a television correspondent in 1984 as an employee of Mega TV, for which she hosted a one-hour daily news and discussion program.[5]

Salazar spent three decades working at Telemundo. In 1995, she interviewed Fidel Castro for Telemundo at the Cuban mission to the UN. She is said to have been the only U.S. Spanish-language television journalist to interview Castro one-on-one.[6][7][8]

Salazar has said that “her second biggest get of her television career was an on-camera interview with right-wing Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet,” which she has cited as an example of “her journalistic independence and tenacity.”[9]

On October 24, 2014, Venezuela's Ministry of Communication and Information accused Salazar of having twice “incited the assassination of Hugo Chávez” on her TV program María Elvira Live. Under the headline “Maria Elvira: U.S. TV trash,” the ministry accused her of libel and of having CIA ties.[10]
