  • A New Resource for Middle Class Families
    Airbnb: A New Resource for Middle Class Families 1 Good Neighbors On average, Airbnb hosts have lived in their hometowns for almost 20 years. For millions of immigrants, the long journey toward the American Dream went past Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. These families came to the United States searching for a better life in a land full of opportunity, where happiness and fnancial stability could be achieved through hard work. Today, the Statue of Liberty is a symbol of this hope and the freedom to pursue the American Dream, but for many families, that dream feels increasingly out of reach. Economic turmoil and stagnating incomes have meant that hard work alone no longer guarantees Americans will be able to provide comfortable lives for their families. Amidst this uncertainty, we are proud that Airbnb has become an economic lifeline for the middle class. Home sharing and Airbnb allow local residents to use what is typically one of their greatest expenses — their home — to make additional income that helps them pay the bills. 2 Policymakers are taking notice and acting to support home sharing and the middle class. Today, Jersey City — less than half a mile from the Statue of Liberty — proposed new legislation that would make the City the frst location in the tri-state area to pass common sense home sharing laws. Jersey City has a robust history as a hub for middle class families and we appreciate city leaders’ work to pass progressive rules that support working men and women. Making Ends Meet Money earned from home sharing helps nearly 60% of Airbnb hosts stay in their homes.

  • Arab-American Media Bringing News to a Diverse Community
    November 28, 2012 Arab-American Media Bringing News to a Diverse Community FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: Tom Rosenstiel, Director Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism Amy Mitchell, Deputy Director, Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism (202) 419-3650 1615 L St, N.W., Suite 700 Washington, D.C. 20036 www.journalism.org Arab-American Media: Bringing News to a Diverse Community Overview If it were just a matter of population growth, the story of the Arab-American media would be a simple tale of opportunity. Over the last decade, Arab Americans have become one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the United States. But the story of the media trying to serve that audience is more complicated than that: The Arab-American population across the United States is ethnically diverse. Arab-American media are being buffeted by the same technology and economic trends as the news media generally, as well as a more challenging advertising market. And, advancements in technology have brought new competition from Arab outlets located in the Middle East and North Africa. Overall, the current Arab-American news media are relatively young. Newspapers and news websites are currently the most prominent sector, with much of the coverage focused on community news and events. There is also coverage at the national level, though, and recently, the Arab uprisings have given rise to more international coverage of news from “back home.” A number of papers are seeing rising circulation. Some new publications have even launched. However, most papers are still struggling to recover financially from the economic recession of 2007 and at the same time keep up with the trends in digital technology and social media.

  • The Middle 24-Teilige US-Serie Ab Donnerstag, 1
    13. Januar 2012 The Middle 24-teilige US-Serie Ab Donnerstag, 1. März 2012, 18.40 Uhr Inhalt 2 Für Familienfans und Familienskeptiker Vorwort von Florian Weber und Sebastian Lückel 3 The Middle Stab, Inhalt, Folgeninhalte, Episodenübersicht 14 Biografien 17 Kontakt, Bildhinweis und Impressum 1 13. Januar 2012 Für Familienfans und Familienskeptiker Wenn eine Frau im mittleren Alter in einem Superhelden-Kostüm in einem Maisfeld herumläuft, dann ist das im Normalfall seltsam. Im Fall von "The Middle" ist das aber nicht seltsam, sondern witzig und völlig in Ordnung. Handelt es sich doch um eine waschechte Sitcom, die ihr komödianti- sches Potential nicht selten aus gerade solch ent- und verrückten Situationen zieht. Die Frau im Superhelden-Kostüm heißt Frankie Heck und ist in der Regel, sagen wir mal – ein wenig gestresst. Sie hat einen Job, einen Ehemann, drei Kinder, die alle irgendwo zwischen Früh-, Vor- und Spätpubertät stecken. Kein Wunder, dass Frankie sich auf ihrem neuen Führerschein- foto kaum wiedererkennt und sich fragt, was nur aus der gutaussehenden Frau auf dem alten Führerscheinfoto geworden ist. Gut, wenn dann der Gatte den Unterschied der beiden Fotos so plausibel wie feinsinnig zu er- klären versteht: "Na ja, damals warst du jung und sexy und darauf gespannt, was das Leben dir bringen wird – und jetzt, tja, jetzt weißt du’s." Freunde kann man sich aussuchen, seine Familie bekanntlich nicht. Im Fernsehen ist das zum Glück anders, hier kann man sich seine "TV- Familie" sehr wohl aussuchen – der Fernbedienung sei Dank. Und es gibt gerade im Sitcomgenre einige Fernseh-Familien, die viele Zuschauer – wie ihre eigene Familie – mit all ihren Fehlern und Überspanntheiten ins Herz geschlossen haben.
