Ethnic media, as we talked about it very important to different communities. These ethnic newspapers, like the ones we saw in class are what these communities read to keep updated on what's going on.
We saw that they touch on current topics in our country, but some were written from different points of views than others. These newspapers cater to these specific communities. Should they be more neutral and cater to all people?
I came across an article from the Boston Globe about the The Danger of Losing Ethnic Media.

Ethnic media sees their role as giving a voice to certain communities, whichever they represent. It's very interesting and a quick read. It talks about ethnic media steering the mainstream media and so on.
