Subject files, ca. 1985-ca. 1999.

Collection consists of subject files documenting the National Hispanic Media Coalition's (NHMC) activities to address media-related issues affecting the Hispanic American community from ca. 1989 through 1999. The bulk of the files contain information about various organizations, people, and events and include a mixture of original and photocopied clippings, occasional research notes, press releases, and ephemera. Additionally, there may be occasional legal documents, FCC filings, correspondence and a small amount of incomplete meeting agendas and notes for NHMC Board of Directors and/or Steering Committee meetings. Of particular note are files related to an ABC boycott organized by NHMC; NHMC's interest in media personality Howard Stern; material related to Univision/Hallmark and to the Disney company; and numerous petitions filed by NHMC with the Federal Communications Commission related to licenses or other business of radio and television stations nationwide. There are also a very small amount of miscellaneous files that appear to be from the desk of Alex Nogales. Files labeled by a person's name may be by first or last name.
