Sara Carter Career
Carter’s stories can be found at saraacarter.com. She previously worked for Circa News as a senior national security correspondent. She previously worked for the Los Angeles Times Group, The Washington Times, and The Washington Examiner, and she has written exclusives for USA Today, US News World Report, and Arutz Sheva in Israel.
Her work along the US-Mexico border paved the way for future national security stories in the region. Her investigations uncovered secret tunnel systems, narcotics trafficking routes, and Mexican federal officials’ involvement in the drug trade. Sara has appeared on hundreds of national news and radio shows to talk about her work. She has also appeared as a guest on Fox, CNN, BBC International, and C-Span. She has conducted interviews with a number of heads of state and foreign officials. She has extensive travel experience in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Mexico.
Since 2008, she has spent more than seven months in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Her work on Afghan women and children addicted to opium won first place in the Associated Press award in Washington, D.C. She embedded with troops on Afghanistan’s border with Pakistan, where they were mortared and shot at by Taliban insurgents hiding in the hillsides. She accompanied the Pakistani Army into Pakistan’s lawless border region of North and South Waziristan. She has broken numerous stories in the region about ISIS and al-Qaeda, including a verified ISIS document revealing the group’s plans for South Asia and the Middle East. The history of ISIS and its leadership was also included in the dossier.
Her investigative reports have been recognized at the regional, state, national, and international levels. She has won two National Headliner Awards, one of which was for Jamie’s Story, a film about a child born into the Mexican Mafia and gangs in Southern California. The detailed and, at times, life-threatening stories forced city officials to resign and resulted in changes to the law, education, and programs in San Bernardino and Los Angeles Counties.
She won her second National Headliner Award in 2006 for her multi-part series Beyond Borders. The project included ground-breaking investigations into immigration and national security issues along the southwest border. Her immigration research also earned her the Eugene Katz Award from the Center for Immigration Studies in Washington, D.C. in 2006. In addition, she received the California Newspaper Publishers Association Freedom of Information Act Award in 2006 for her investigation into millions of federal dollars misappropriated by a local school district in a low-income neighborhood.
Sara was the first to uncover documents revealing the number of Mexican military incursions into the United States, and her story on Border Patrol Agents Ignacio â€Nacho†Ramos and Jose Compean sparked a national campaign to pardon the agents, who were sentenced to 12 years in prison after an altercation with a convicted Mexican drug smuggler in Texas.
Sara conducted a two-year investigation and President George W. Bush commuted their sentence on his final day in office. She received the Sigma Delta Chi award from the Society of Professional Journalists in 2008 for her multi-part series in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico that exposed the brutality of the Gulf and Sinaloa Cartel wars along the border.
