Sotomayor’s nomination headlines major papers

May 26, 2009 by Veronica Villafañe

President Obama’s nomination of Justice Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court is the headline for most of the country’s top papers today – from the NYT to the Washington Post, to the LAT to the Chicago Tribune.

Oddly enough, she was noticeably absent from some Spanish-language news sites, such as Telemundo’s Web site in New York, where the judge hails from, which at 4:10 pm EST still had no news of her nomination.  The president’s Supreme Court pick was on the univision.com site, as well as on L.A.’s La Opinion and NY’s Diario La Prensa sites.

 

Judge Sotomayor is the first Hispanic woman nominated to the country’s highest court.
