Answer to Question 1

In 1970, women represented only 27 percent of the profession. By 1989, that figure had
jumped to 59 percent. There is an ongoing debate over the effects of the feminization of public
relations. Some fear the field has become a velvet ghetto where women hold the lower-paying
technical jobs and men dominate the higher-paying managerial jobs. Others have argued that there is
no quantitative evidence to support the velvet ghetto argument.

Answer to Question 2

Starting in the 1980s, new immigration into the U.S. primarily came from Latin America and Asia.
In 1990, three out of four U.S. residents were of white European ancestry. By the middle of the 21st
century, that ratio will drop to only one out of two. The Hispanic market is the fastest growing sector
of the U.S. economy. It is a market that has been, for many years, underrated.
