Study: Many Hispanics get Health info from TV
(2008-08-14)
(WUSF) - Pew Hispanic Center Deputy Director Susan Minushkin says more than four thousand Hispanics from across the country were polled last summer for a study conducted with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

But while that information may be provided on Spanish language TV, it's not necessarily on mainstream TV. And she says most Hispanics are English dominant.
