Latinos remain grossly underrepresented in the media industry and are significantly more likely to perform service roles, according to a new Government Accountability Office report.

Latinos remain grossly underrepresented in the media industry and are significantly more likely to perform service roles, according to the Government Accountability Office’s newest report on Latino representation in film, television, and other publishing entities. The GAO’s 2021 study found that Latinos make up 12% of the media workforce and 4% of industry management, despite making up 18% of the overall U.S. workforce.

” The media industry is responsible for informing the American public and influencing the way we think about the world and other people, which is why it’s essential for society to represent those diverse perspectives from top to bottom, the report said. Media companies also have a financial incentive to promote representative parity. A Nielsen report revealed last month that Latino viewers spent more time binging shows that included Latino representation behind and in front of the camera.
