📰 The Decline of Local News: Impact on Immigrant Communities Key Facts: 🗞️ Since 2005, the U.S. has lost 1/3 of its newspapers and 2/3 of its newspaper journalists (Associated Press)  📉 In 2023 alone, 2.5 newspapers closed each week, highlighting a deteriorating media landscape. (Associated Press) 🚨 At least 1,265 websites identified as being backed by dark money or are intentionally masquerading as local news sites for political purposes (Axios) 🗳️ 45% of the partisan sites observed targeted communities or regions in swing states (Axios) As local news declines and partisan outlets rise, immigrant communities, especially Spanish-speaking Latinos, are vulnerable to misinformation, with digital platforms often overlooking crucial topics like immigration policy and public benefits. ❌ Noticias Para Inmigrantes bridges this gap by delivering accurate, community-centric news through a trusted friend-to-friend model and transcreation process, partnering with lawyers, advocacy groups, and local entities to amplify initiatives and boost community engagement. 🗣️ 🔹 Our Approach: We translate complex national news, federal policies, and public benefits into community-specific information, incorporating cultural nuances to foster a two-way dialogue within the community. In a time of increasing misinformation, our role is critical in providing our communities with the trustworthy information they deserve. #LocalNews #SmallNewsroom #DigitalMedia #ImmigrantCommunities #TrustedNews #NoticiasParaInmigrantes #CommunityEngagement
