Ogunquit, Me., isn’t exactly a hub of U.S. Hispanic culture. In the summer, it is a bucolic seaside resort where one can enjoy lobster rolls and one of Maine’s many microbrewed beers on tap. Spanish-language media, if consumed, may originate from Boston or elsewhere, delivered via the internet, or satellite TV.
Yet, in this small town resides a former print journalist who has chronicled — through his own lens — the history of Hispanic-targeted television in the U.S. Javier Marín doesn’t hold back his questions and criticism, either.
