Abstract

"Cover Story" piece focusing on how local media decide on the scope, play, and size of coverage for the hate groups targeting Lewiston. With special focus on the West Virginia-based National Alliance, and the Illinois-based World Church of the Creator, two white-supremacist groups that claim national membership. The two groups are trying to capitalize on a letter from Lewiston mayor Larry Raymond about the burgeoning Somali community of that city, asking the immigrants to "exercise some discipline" in inviting their friends and relatives to move to the financially, physically, and emotional "maxed-out" Lewiston.

Subjects

National Alliance, Hate groups, Somalis in Lewiston, World Church of the Creator
