How was the Mexican Americans portrayed in the Mass Media?
alexira [117]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You did not mention any specific text, article, or reference to answer this question. So we are going to answer it in general terms.

How were the Mexican Americans portrayed in the Mass Media?

Unfortunately, Mexican Americans not always receive the best coverage in the news.

It seems that is a lot of stereotyping and prejudice when talking about Mexican Americans. They are not portrayed in the best way possible because most of the time, mass media shares the story of poor Mexican immigrants that had to cross the border legally or illegally, and started to work in the United States in low paid jobs such as gardening, plumbing, or in the construction industry. Jobs that most American people would reject.

The stereotype is that these people are lazy and like to party a lot, not being responsible to assume their labor commitments.

But the truth is that these Mexican Americans are very hard-working people because they have to make ends meet working in two different jobs to try to make a decent living for their families. Indeed, these people have helped the US economy to grow, forming an important social group that in recent years has captured the interest of political candidates during elections.
