A negative image of African Americans have persisted to be displayed through the media, which has lead to a negative overall portrayal about them.

NEWS MEDIA CONTRIBUTION The general public is becoming more actively involved in the media, especially News programs and articles. News have sustained to be a very reliable source of information, thus the images and content are perceived as a reliable form of what truly happens. “The News media respond quickly and with keen interest to the conflicts and controversies of racial stories…They disregard the problems that sleep beneath the surface until they erupt in the hot steam that is the ‘live news story’” (Balkaran)
