Best Answer

Martin Luther King Jr. wanted equal rights for whites and blacks. He thought it was wrong to give whites a larger amount of money for jobs. Also, he wanted no discrimination against anyone (from blacks to whites, or whites to blacks) even though this might have brought up riots.

Why did Martin Luther King Jr seem to get press for his beliefs?

He received press because the blacks were standing up for themselves without violence and I am certain he made sure the media was there. He was a bold and profound man. He took a lot of risks standing up for oppressed black people. At the time it was uncommon for a black man to stand up publicly on a national level.
