Journalistic culture clash: Miami Herald and El Nuevo Herald

The Latin American model of journalism emphasizes political involvement and social justice. The US model aspires to objectivity. A recent chain of events at the Miami Herald has revealed some tensions between these models. Reporters for El Nuevo Herald (published by the Miami Herald) were fired for moon-lighting at Radio Marti, a US propaganda service aimed at Cuba. Then they were re-hired and the publisher was fired.
