Asian Week: Lessons From Virginia Tech

 

May 2, 2008

AAJA was a recipient of the Asian Community Mental Health Services 2008 Media Champion Award for "challenging misinformation and stereotypes in media coverage around the Virginia Tech tragedy and helping to present mental distress as a human and commonplace experience." The award is a testament to the efforts of AAJA's MediaWatch committee as well as hundreds of AAJA members who advocate for fair and accurate coverage of the AAPI communities in their respective newsrooms. ACMHS is located in Oakland, California.
