Aguilar’s suspension becomes permanent

Award-winning reporter Rebecca Aguilar has been dropped from her contract at Fox-4, in Dallas. She had been suspended with pay for the past five months, after management questioned her handling of a story.

At the time, the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, who weeks earlier had named her Broadcast Journalist of the Year, defended her actions. UNITY, Journalists of Color followed suit.

Rebecca got the news via mail yesterday, reports Ed Bark in his blog.
