When it comes to indecency in the media, the opinions of Hispanic radio listeners vary only slightly from their Anglo and African-American brothers and sisters according to a recent nationwide study conducted by Paragon Media Strategies. When asked, “Are you aware of the recent issue of indecency in the media,” 79% of the Hispanic respondents in the survey indicated they were aware. This matched the 79% for total respondents and was close to the 80% awareness for Anglos. African-Americans’ awareness of the issue trailed a bit at 66%.
