Growing up as a Latina in a country filled with so many diverse languages, everyday is exciting. Through previous assignments I have been able to prove why language are not only impactful but essential. Ethnic media promotes individuals to use creativity and diversity. Reading several newspapers such as the New York Times, The Daily News, and El Diario La Prensa has inspired me to visually create my own 24-page newspaper. My paper will be a bilingual ethnic newspaper, which will be called “ La Ultima Hora”. La Ultima Hora, will contain a little bit of everything in regards to News, Sports, Entertainment and much more. My goal is to create a newspaper that will inform and also impact the readers.

Hello Stephanie, I like your idea. But, I have a little bit of concern with the bilingual part. You think it will impact the Latinos audience you are trying to reach? what about those Latinos that do not speak English yet? How effective will this bilingual edition be in advertising and circulation? This is just a suggestion, I think it would be better if you focus in one language either Spanish or English. I believe it will reach the audience you want, and at the same time would remain in the market longer than if you do it bilingual.
