Tagged: California, National Association of Hispanic Journalists, Spanish-language, studentPosted on: June 14th, 2007“Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger told a gathering of Hispanic journalists that immigrants should avoid Spanish-language media if they want to learn English quickly.
“Youve got to turn off the Spanish television set,” the Republican governor said Wednesday night at the annual convention of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists. “Its that simple. Youve got to learn English.”
Schwarzenegger, who immigrated to the U.S. from Austria, made the remarks in response to a question about how to improve the academic performance of Hispanic students. The audience included many journalists who work for Spanish-language media outlets.”
