Episode Synopsis

When you watch television news cover stories of crime, is there a disproportionate number of suspects of color? How does what you see compare to the actual numbers? How does that affect your perception of the minority communities where you live? We're taking a deep dive into these issues with Kena Lewis, author of a study about how African American journalists view how African Americans are portrayed in local newscasts; and Jorge Estevez, anchor and reporter at WFTV in Orlando, FL.
