What
is LaPrensa? |
|
La Prensa
is an innovative weekly newspaper serving the Latino/Hispanic
communities in Ohio, Michigan, Indianapolis, and St. Louis. We have
more than 75,000 weekly readers (includes Lazo Cultural Supplement
and the weekly Internet visiting readers), a number that grows every
day. It is the oldest Midwest regional Latino newspaper. |

La
Prensa strives to be second to none. |
|
We give our
readers objective coverage of hard news from their community about
education, people, politics and events. We adhere to the ethics of the
Society of Professional Journalists. We offer in-depth articles on
literature, art, culture, poetry, dance, travel and Latino Music. La
Prensa is nationally known for its Tejano music coverage and sponsorship.
Tejano music is a combination of Texan and Spanish music with strong
influences from polka, country, rock and jazz and is popular throughout
the region.
La Prensa is active in the community. La Prensa not only acts as a
watchdog, but sponsors cultural and musical events such as Latino
Scholarship Day with the Muds Hens and has sponsored past events such as
the Midwest Tejano Music Awards and festivals.
Academic
scholarships:
Each year La Prensa awards a deserving LASSO senior member at St. Francis
de Sales High School the sum of $500 for university/college attendance. |

fastest growing minority populations—Latinos.
