MIAMI, FL – December 17, 2014 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), Hispanicize Wire, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ) and Florida International University (FIU) have renewed their partnership to conduct the 2nd Annual State of Hispanic Journalists Survey that will be unveiled at Hispanicize 2015 Week in Miami, March 16-20.
“The second annual survey will help us see if Latino journalists have changed their perceptions about several key industry topics we queried them about in 2014 and if there are new issues they are tracking in 2015”
The 5-minute national survey, which will be officially launched in January, uncovers the ongoing evolution of Hispanic journalists’ beliefs about their careers and their use of social media and technology. Building on the first survey, (which can be accessed here: http://staging.hispanicizewire.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2014-State-of-Hispanic-Journalists-Report-v2-121214.pdf), the 2nd annual survey targets U.S. Latino and Puerto Rico-based journalists who produce content for Hispanic and non-Hispanic media outlets alike. The online survey will be heavily promoted nationally through Hispanicize Wire as well as thru the NAHJ.
“The second annual survey will help us see if Latino journalists have changed their perceptions about several key industry topics we queried them about in 2014 and if there are new issues they are tracking in 2015,” said Bill Gato, CEO of Hispanicize Wire.
The results of the survey will be jointly unveiled as part of the Hispanic Journalist Showcase of the 6th Annual Hispanicize 2015 (http://www.HispanicizeEvent.com) event, the annual Latino trends event, that will be held March 16-20 in Miami at the InterContinental Miami hotel.
