I will tell you that the articles that you read in English on DR1,are translated from various dominicaan newspapers that are sold,or given away free here everyday.So if they don't read the stories as they appear in the daily Dominican newspapers,why would they read them after they have been re-printed in Spanish on DR1?

Are you familiar with the saying;"Carrying Coals To Newcastle"?

I don't think that giving them the same articles that are available in the papers one day,the next day,will make them more readable!

Here is another "Old Saying","You can lead a horse to water,but you can't make him read yesterdays newspaper!!"or something like that!
