CNN is shutting down CNN Latino just a year after its launch. The eight-hour syndicated news and entertainment block will shutter later this month, Media Moves reports.

“CNN Latino was a bold effort to continue CNN’s commitment to the U.S. Hispanic marketplace. Unfortunately, despite the great efforts of many talented people, CNN Latino was not able to fulfill our business expectations and we are discontinuing the programming this month,” a CNN spokesperson said in a statement.

Maybe they should try something new and different - CNN Ebony.

Only a month?

They do....it’s called PROTECTIMG OBAMA 24/7!!!!

If CNN had asked the Obama administration would have bought enough advertising for Obamacare to keep the programming going at least through November 2014. They are slipping.

Now, in all fairness, FOX should be criticized for its role in the same misguided insulting and divisive FOX Latino whatever.
Sounds like another really stupid PC move inspired by the Obama "divisiveness" Corps.

The next question should be “When are you going to shutter the rest of CNN?”
I understand that they are loosing a lot of money.

Duh! Latinos don’t see themselves as “Latinos”. A Mexican has NOTHING in common with a Cuban, or Columbian, save the language.
