Timeline

2016

His dismissal as editor became known on 25 May 2016, and followed his appearance on a talk programme on Onda Cero, in which he asked the presenter whether they accepted "ex-editors". His termination took place during a serious crisis for the newspaper and its owner Unidad Editorial, which was undertaking its third round of redundancies since 2009. The workforce were taking intermittent strike action in protest against a proposal to dismiss over 160 staff, a plan that Jiménez had opposed. Jiménez attributed his dismissal to his resistance to pressures that would have compromised the independence of the newspaper, and in June 2016 he was the first editor of a Spanish newspaper to take advantage of a constitutional "conscience clause" intended to protect the freedom of the press. He then sued the company and its president. After a year long legal battle, the company finally admitted that Jimenez had been dismissed without reason, and stated in writing that it would respect his freedom of expression in the future.

2014

On being awarded a Nieman scholarship from the University of Harvard in 2014, he worked for a period at MIT Media Lab, investigating digital challenges to the press. He returned to Madrid to take over the editorship of El Mundo, replacing Casimiro García-Abadillo, with the task of bringing the paper out of its period of crisis and leading its digital transformation.

2007

His published works include his first book, Hijos del monzón ("Children of the Monsoon": Kailas, 2007), which won the award for the best Spanish travel book, and has been translated into English, German, Italian and Chinese. He has also published a novel, El botones de Kabul ("The Bellhop of Kabul": La Esfera, 2010), based on his experiences covering the Afghan war, and El lugar más feliz del mundo ("The happiest place in the world": Kailas, 2015). His latest book, El director, is being adapted as a TV series by Fremantle.
