plans for article edit.

edit

As I was researching this article I decided to change my original plan of adding information concerning bias towards Latinos. I have decided instead to focus on the research studies. I came across 3 possible peer reviewed studies concerning the media, crime, and bias and plan on updating and adding the research of concerning possible effects of bias to give the article a more fact based tone and less persuasive one.--Student wiki nikki (talk) 21:20, 23 April 2020 (UTC) I plan on using these sources for my edit.Reply
