Cindy Rodríguez is an American journalist and writer based in Boston.
Journalism career[edit]
Rodríguez is currently a Journalist-in-Residence [1] at Emerson College. For most of her career, she worked at daily newspapers. She covered race relations and cultural affairs for the Detroit News, was a columnist and blogger at The Denver Post, covered immigration and demographics for The Boston Globe and wrote opinion pieces for the Globe's now-defunct "Focus" section. She also worked at the Akron Beacon Journal, where she primarily covered education issues and was a columnist and youth editor at The Syracuse Newspapers.[2][3]
Conflict with Bill O'Reilly[edit]
Her columns at the Denver Post drew ire from Bill O'Reilly, who, on his TV show described her of being a proponent of "open borders" along with other statements and characterizations.[4] During the October 25, 2005 edition of the Fox News Channel program The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly accused Denver Post columnist Cindy Rodriguez of misquoting him.[5] Rodriguez's claims in her column were supported by statements made on O'Reilly's radio program, The Radio Factor.[6][7]
O'Reilly would later list Rodriguez as one of many columnists he believes are influenced by George Soros and Peter Lewis in his book The Culture Warrior.[8]
Teaching journalism[edit]
Rodríguez has taught multimedia journalism at Fordham University, New York University[9] and at Hunter College (CUNY).[10][dead link]} She has also taught at Metropolitan State College of Denver, Boston University, and Northeastern University. For three years, she ran the Newhouse Minority Journalism program, a year-long educational program on journalism and the media, administered by reporters and editors at The Syracuse Newspapers.[2]
Writing[edit]
She has been published in more than three dozen newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times,[11] The Village Voice, Time Video and Latina Magazine. Her columns for the Denver Post ran on the New York Times and MediaNews wires.[12]
Rodríguez was one of a handful of Latina columnists working in the U.S. newsmedia.[13][dead link]

Rodríguez served as Vice President-Print of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists from 2006 to 2008 and was General At-Large Officer from 2004 to 2006.[14] During her time on the board, she helped create the GLBT Caucus.[15] She is a member of the James Aronson Award for Social Justice Journalism committee.[16]
