Newspaper Article
BLACK PRESS MAKES GAINS, ACCORDING TO A BU STUDY
1984
Overview
\"However, there are a few more newspapers than there were five years ago,\" said Dr. Henry LaBrie, the BU journalism professor who conducted the survey, \"and circulation has also risen by about 700,000, or about 23 percent.\" Part of the retrenchment occurred, LaBrie said, because the establishment press in the 1950's and 1960's, began recruiting and training promising young black reporters, putting many black papers in the position of \"ships without rudders.\" Another factor was the simultaneous increased attention the mainstream American media focused on black issues. LaBrie, meanwhile, said the basic reason for the existence of black, and other alternative newspapers, is not very different from the need expressed on the editorial page of the nation's first black newspaper on March 16, 1827.
