When we launched a year ago, we set out to provide a fresh perspective on the news, one that was rooted in facts and focused on the most pressing issues impacting Latinos. We wanted to create a space where our readers could engage with thoughtful analysis and opinion pieces that challenge their assumptions and broaden their understanding of the world.

On February 2nd, the Latino Media Collaborative, which publishes CALÓ NEWS, was presented with a leadership award by the California News Publishers Association for work supporting the mission of the California News Publishers Association (CNPA) to protect and serve the common interests of news media in California through advocacy in Sacramento. “This award is a testament to the power of the collaborative and of the equity in journalism and communications that we can achieve when we work together to advance a greater good,” said Arturo Carmona, President of the Latino Media Collaborative.
