Poll: One-Third Bugged By Spanish Speaking
Item: Spanish Spoken Here -- and Two-thirds Don't Mind: Fewer Admit Feeling Prejudice Toward Hispanics than Toward Arabs, Overweight People/ABC News "Good Morning America" Poll
More Info: Spanish speaking in the United States is widespread and accepted by most Americans. But a third who experience this language difference are troubled by it -- and they have distinctly more negative attitudes about immigrants and Hispanics generally. Just 10 percent of Americans concede any personal prejudice against Hispanics -- far fewer than the number who, in previous polls, have self-reported prejudice on the basis of race, against overweight people, or against Arabs and Muslims.
Question: How do you react when you hear someone speaking Spanish?
