Danny Glover on Minorities in the Media

Danny GloverCheck out this great op-ed piece on minorities in the media in the Guardian UK from one of Link TV's board members, actor and UNDP Goodwill Ambassador Danny Glover! Written together with U.S. Congressman Mike Honda (D-California), the piece calls out the lack of diversity in America's newsrooms, and the paucity of coverage of minority issues. There's also a nice plug for Link TV and the channel's mission of providing diverse global perspectives, with Glover and Honda pointing out that "the more world-wise we become, the more capable we will be as a nation to understand and be understood." The article has spawned a lively discussion on the Guardian UK's website - let us know what YOU think!

Demonstrations in July have brought the conflict, centered in the Xinjiang region of China, into the media spotlight. Recently Chinese hackers attacked the Melbourne International Film Festival website in an attempt to stop the prestigious international festival from screening a documentary about Kadeer, The Ten Conditions of Love. In this Link TV video host James Zogby interviews Kadeer.
