From 1990 to 1995 Franklin lived in San Francisco and worked as a reporter for the ''San Francisco Bay Guardian'' and ''SF Weekly'' as well as ''The Boston Globe''. As a reporter for ''Playboy'' magazine in the early 1990s, Franklin interviewed prominent figures in the United States, including Patrick Buchanan and Timothy McVeigh.

Through Addictvillage Jonathan has written adventure news stories from Latin America, about topics ranging from U.S deportation of illegal immigrants〔http://addictvillage.com/pdf/conair02.pdf〕 to hidden cocaine labs in the Colombian jungle〔http://addictvillage.com/pdf/cocainejungle01.pdf〕 to "eco barons" in Chile.〔http://addictvillage.com/pdf/ecobarons02.pdf〕 In October 2010 Franklin secured a book deal to write 33 Men, the definitive account of the Chilean miners, a non fiction book about the experience of the miners in the 2010 Copiapó mining accident.

Franklin's experiences and insider accounts became the basis of a 60 Minutes TV program about the miners, an article in People magazine, a series of audio lectures on the BBC and multiple articles around the world. Franklin says, "While 2,000 journalists were locked behind police lines, my 'Rescue Team' pass enabled me to experience up close the final six weeks of this miracle rescue. It was my honor to watch the drama unfold in its many moments of beauty and courage and comedy; and to see, first-hand, the profound unity that made this operation succeed."〔http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/g-p-putnams-sons-acquires-33-men-a-riveting-new-book-by-award-winning-journalist-jonathan-franklin-the-story-of-the-chilean-miners-trapped-2200-feet-underground-for-ten-weeks-106689398.html〕 The book has now been translated into 19 languages and was briefly a best seller in both the United States and England.
