Tagged: Minneapolis, Minnesota, newspaperPosted on: June 12th, 2008
At last weekend’s National Conference for Media Reform (NCMR), Anthony Advincula sounded dismayed as he opened the forum “The Fighting Press: Ethnic Media Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.”
“We’re competing with Arianna Huffington next door,” he said to an audience of about 30 at the Minneapolis Convention Center on Saturday. “Hopefully we won’t have outsider status next year.”
“It doesn’t seem like we’re being taken seriously—we’re not being videotaped,” quipped Edwin Okong’o, editor of Mshale, an African community newspaper in Minneapolis.”*
