@dleonboys Congratulations Diana! What wonderful news

[Christopher Chávez @cachavez4]

I've been thinking about why someone would pay $400 for these eyesores, but it's helpful to re-read @GrantDMcCracken's piece from a few years back: "Who is the Celebrity Endorser? Cultural foundations of the Endorsement Process" from @JCRNEWS.

Latinx scholars are engaging in important research on the relationship between sound, industry practices and collective identity. Here is my piece in @Journal_Of_Comm that focus on the work of three: @RoblesSonia2 @doctora_moni and Pablo Palomino

This is a welcome change. Language ideologies continue to haunt Hollywood, but I'm glad more great work is being recognized. https://t.co/Yn4byn7HNC

@jbfavara @tldelrosso @IllinoisPress Congratulations! Such great news

[Christopher Chávez @cachavez4]

It's always a tragedy when you see these kinds of cuts in newsrooms, but this one hits close to home. The @latimes does such great work covering Latinx communities and I hope this doesn't compromise that mission
