Аннотация:This study examines how Nicaraguan newspapers in the 1990s turned to non-Nicaraguan sources for ideas on how to better appeal to readers. The study is framed in the context of globalization. Using a combination of content analysis, survey, participant-observation, and interviews, this study finds that many Nicaraguan newspaper journalists clearly admire the journalism of other countries and seek the training of outsiders. Owners and managers of Nicaraguan newspapers also encourage and facilitate this foreign influence. The study finds Nicaraguan newspapers may be changing as a result of this mixing of cultures, yet there are also signs of resistance to these changes at one newspaper.
