dc.description.abstractComparative research across the world has shown that journalistic roles are informed by the socio-political systems in which journalists operate. While the literature surrounding the discourse of journalistic roles continues to grow to incorporate journalistic cultures that are not necessarily rooted in Western notions of democracy, there is still insufficient research that acknowledges the growing presence of transnational communities, a byproduct of an increasingly globalized world. Studying Spanish-language media organizations in the United States is an effective way to understand the ways in which Latinx American journalists navigate and consolidate multiple journalistic cultures. This research explores the cognitive roles of eight journalists in six Spanish-language news organizations in Oregon. Results show that while Spanish-language journalists tend to conform to values present in Western journalistic cultures, they also adapt their roles to more effectively serve the Latinx American community.en_US
