They were discussing matters in Mexico, the drug wars, immigration, and the new president-elect. Eleanor mentioned "The recent discovery of oil has helped Mexico." Recent? The Mexicans have been pumping oil for the last hundred years. They created Pemex in 1938. That's recent?
Of course Eleanor works for Newsweek magazine, which is doing so well that they decided to stop printing the magazine, merge with The Daily Beast and become a pure web site. Real commercial success that is. I wonder how much Eleanor's learned writing had to do with that.
