In response to the recent controversy surrounding the Mexican costume image taken by the Chi Omega sorority chapter of Penn State, the National Association of Latino Fraternal National Organizations (NALFO) released the following statement yesterday:

Censorship. In the Internet age, it is a word that is tossed about a lot and mostly misinterpreted. To give this column some context, let's actually read from the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or […]

Just when we thought that Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) was going out on a limb and telling the world that Pitbull ain't no Tupac or Eminem (TRUTH!), a story by NBC Latino published today just proves that Rubio is just another politician who likes to offer music critiques and delete tweets. Now the Miami native is […]

Tonight, MSNBC released the following statement regarding a Mexican Twinkie segment it aired on "The Cycle:" On Monday’s The Cycle, we aired a graphic during our reporting on the Hostess story that was apparently offensive to some viewers. We want to say that it was never the intention of MSNBC to offend any person or […]

UPDATE: MSNBC offered a non-apology tonight around 7:30 EST, November 19, 2012. We really thought that we wouldn't have to write TWO Twinkies posts in one day, but here we are again talking about Twinkies. And for all the wrong reasons. Earlier today on MSNBC, S.E. Cupp—one of the co-hosts of MSNBC's The Cycle—introduced a […]

We know that The Daily Bleach is a satire site. Think of it like a dumb person's The Onion. The Bleach is known for skewering anyone. However, unlike The Onion—whose brand clearly screams satire and comedy—the Bleach is on a slippery slope and is unethical. It does very little to clearly disclose that all that […]

Are you kidding us, TMZ? Are you f-ing kidding us? Here is what passes for TMZ's take on Puerto Rico's latest plebiscite results. Dear Harvey Levin, you have no damn clue about Puerto Rico, about its people, or about its history with the United States. If you have real cojones (which you don't), you would […]

Today, the video section of Noticiero Univision posted a report with a headline that read "Members of the Klu Klux Klan Celebrate Arpaio's Victory." As we watched the video, the reporter kept saying that the members allegedly were part of the KKK and never really reported that they were actually members. Throughout the video we […]

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED AT JULIORVARELA.COM So, this interview from Fox Business' Varney and Co. with Puerto Rico Secretary of Commerce José Pérez-Riera is quite telling. The level of ignorance from the American media is sad. Let's get this straight: you can disagree with Pérez-Riera, but the interviewers should at least respect the guy. When will Puerto Ricans wake […]

As her adviser (and Chief of Staff) continues to face a controversy for racist tweets she made about President Obama, Puerto Rico's Speaker of the House Jenniffer González issued a statement suggesting that comments such as the ones Heidi Wys Toro's made were "unacceptable." The statement does not specifically call out Wys Toro for the […]
