Timeline

1959

Luis Carlos Antonio Iberico Núnez (born 1 February 1959) is an Argentine-born Peruvian journalist and politician.

1976

In 1976, he entered the National University of San Marcos to study psychology, but after a year he opted for journalism, going on to study communications at the University of Lima.

He also majored in economics at the Ricardo Palma University.

1980

Throughout his journalistic career, he served in various news stations during the 1980s and 1990s.

He gained prominence for his fight against the Alberto Fujimori administration, denouncing several allegations of corruption involving the press.

Alongside Fernando Olivera, he presented the first "Vladi-videos" that would prove the major corruption operations headed by Intelligence Chief Vladimiro Montesinos.

His role in Fujimori's downfall would gain him support in a career in politics.

1983

He decided to complete his journalism studies at the Jaime Bausate y Meza University's School of Journalism, where he graduated in 1983 with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism.

He completed a master's degree in journalism at the Universidad de San Martin de Porres.

1984

He began his journalistic career in 1984, working at various Lima newspapers (El Observador, La Noticia, Hoy), as an editor and political columnist.

1985

Then he joined Frecuencia Latina (Channel 2), as a reporter for the 90 Seconds program (1985).

1989

As the main reporter and political interviewer, he switched to the Contrapunto program (1989).

Of his reports, those related to the fight against terrorism stood out.

1995

In 1995, he covered the Cenepa war.

Between 1995 and 1996 he ventured into the production of ecological documentaries.

1996

In June 1996, he assumed the direction of Contrapunto.

Under his leadership, the program focused on the allegations of corruption and human rights violations during the government of Alberto Fujimori, which led to the government's intervention against Channel 2 and its main shareholder, Baruch Ivcher.

This was materialized with the unconstitutional withdrawal of the Peruvian nationality of said businessman and the taking of this means of communication by minority shareholders Samuel and Mendel Winter.

In response to this outrage, Iberico and key Channel 2 journalists quit the company.

He was hired by Astros Producciones (Channel 13), with the project of a new journalistic program, but it proved to be a failure.

1998

In 1998, together with Fernando Viaña, he founded the newspaper Referendum, which closed after a year, again due to government manipulation through the National Intelligence Service (SIN) led by Vladimiro Montesinos.

1999

In 1999, together with Fernando Viaña and César Hildebrandt, he started the Liberación newspaper, which became the only written press that stood up to the fight against the regime.

In the wake of Alberto Fujimori's third re-election campaign, Iberico decided to fully delve into politics.

2000

Throughout his political life, he has served as Congressman for four terms, three of them being non-consecutive, between the years 2000 and 2020.

Later it became known, thanks to ONE OF the notorious "Vladivideos", that the channel's manager, Julio Vera Abad, agreed to government pressure to withdraw the journalistic programs on Channel 9, in exchange for a substantial cash payment.

In the 2000 national elections, he was elected to the Congress under the Independent Moralizing Front, obtaining a majority of 97,399 votes.

He participated in the popular protest called "Marcha de los Cuatro Suyos" on 28 July 2000, the same day that Fujimori was inaugurated for his third term as president.

He was succeeded by current congressman and former governor of La Libertad Region, Luis Valdez Farías.

For the 2021 general elections, he is the second running mate of César Acuña.

However, the ticket was disqualified on 8 January 2021, due to incomplete information regarding the presidential nominee's income in registration form.

However, the ticket was reinstated on 22 January 2021 following an appeal.
