Jorge Plana shoots photos of diners Monday afternoon at Havana Delight. He is a cameraman for FOX News which is doing a documentary on Hispanics in America. Seated at the table are prosecutors from Gainesville Bill Cervone, left, and Adam Urra. Seated opposite them is Dave Wallace with the Polk County Sheriff's Office.
There is a notion in the United States about Hispanic people that isn’t so flattering about their culture and that they are hurting the American culture and economy.
And in a documentary to combat that notion, Fox News is using a local family in the effort. On Monday, a crew from the news station was in the Havana Delights Cafe on Main Street filming customers and the Saltos family working the lunch hour. They spent hours interviewing the owners Alfredo and Christine Saltos about their achieving the American Dream.
