Description

The Defender Media Group is Houston's Leading Black Information Source and is comprised of the Defender newspaper, Defender website (www.defendernetwork.com), and Defender social media. Serving Houston for over 90 years, the Defender has a competitive edge because of several distinctive qualities: 

1) Community respect & editorial credibility:  Original content generated by our award-winning journalists has resulted in the distinct honor of receiving numerous editorial content awards from the National Newspaper Publishers Association (The Black Press of America) Messenger Awards - equivalent to the Pulitzer of the Black Press of America and business/strategy awards from Local Media Association. 

2) Affluent and progressive audience: The caliber of our readers is a direct reflection of our content and our distribution attracting educated Black consumers with substantial buying power. Our audience is sustained by the pipeline of graduates from the two HBCUs Texas Southern University and Prairie View A&M University in the area. 

3) Market access & penetration:  The digital footprint of the Defender offers a wider reach resulting from the multiple platforms used to deliver our content. The Defender's unique distribution network of major grocery stores and churches offers access and convenience for African-American households in both the inner city and suburbs which is unduplicated by other publications.
