The Role of Black Media in Today’s News Ecosystem 

Black media outlets are more prevalent, active, and followed than ever before, publishing up to 6x more frequently on topics impacting the Black community versus their mainstream counterparts. Our whitepaper, The State of Black Media in 2022: An Overview for Public Relations Professionals, examines Black media in 2022 and the role it plays in the news ecosystem.

  • How has COVID-19 changed media, particularly for Black publishers and consumers?
  • What is Black media’s influence on mainstream media?
