Discussion on media, Citizens Interracial Committee continued, 1969
This meeting was a continuation of a discussion about the media, and how minority groups felt they were either misrepresented or not represented in the various news sources in San Diego. Several instances were presented of news stories that cast a negative image of a minority person or persons, and also of a minority person or group not being given a chance to offer rebuttal to something printed or aired about them. It was agreed by those present that some sort of ongoing meeting of minority groups and media should be established to improve communications between them and raise awareness and sensitivity to minority concerns regarding the media. However, there were notable absences at this meeting, and no resolution was reached.
The meetings were moderated by CIC Executive Director Carroll Waymon, and his voice is often the first one heard in the audio recordings of the meetings. The meeting minutes consist mainly of names matched to marker numbers from the original tape.
