Veteran Univision anchor Jorge Ramos blasted his network Saturday for hosting an interview with former President Donald Trump, charging it created “discomfort and uncertainty within the newsroom.” Ramos
voiced his displeasure in an interview with fellow journalist Enrique Acevedo, saying the Trump interview “put in doubt the independence of our news department, and created discomfort and uncertainty within the newsroom.” “We cannot normalize behavior that threatens democracy and the Hispanic community, or offer Trump an open microphone to broadcast his falsehoods and conspiracy theories,” Ramos said. “We must question and fact-check everything he says and does. That’s why it is...

Liberals are peeved at Univision for offering Trump a platform: ‘A major meltdown’

| 11/21/23 | Brian Flood
Everyone from the ladies on ABC’s "The View" to actor John Leguizamo to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus are peeved at Univision over a recent interview with former President Trump. But Media Research Center news analyst Jorge Bonilla felt the interview was "totally normal," and the Spanish-language network is only taking heat because
it’s usually a "reliable left-wing depository of Democrat talking points" and they simply cannot handle giving Trump a platform. "What you're seeing right now is a major meltdown, mostly on the left, from operators of the Democratic Party, members of the media and members of the celebrity class...

Fox News Picks Univision Host to Push Amnesty in GOP Debate

| September 27, 2023 | Neil Munro
Fox News’s top executives chose a Colombian-born anchor to host the GOP primary debate and to tout an amnesty for 11 million illegal migrants and the roughly 800,000 “DACA” illegals. “President
Reagan granted amnesty to nearly three million immigrants — something no Democrat or Republican president has done since,” said Ilia Calderon, the anchor from the Univision Spanish-language TV network. She continued: Governor [Chris] Christie, as governor of a non-border state in 2010, you supported a “path to citizenship,” but when you ran for president in 2016, you flipped, saying immigrants should be tracked like FedEx packages. Where do you...

‘UNWATCHABLE’: Viewers Blast RNC, Fox for Including Univision in Debate

Viewers of the second Republican National Committee (RNC) debate blasted the RNC as well as Fox News for including Univision as a partner in the event. The
debate kicked off with Univision anchor Ilia Calderón opening up the debate by speaking Spanish, telling viewers that the candidates are trying to win them over. [cut] But the irritation of the inclusion of Univision only grew throughout the night, as moderators asked about “gun violence,” amnesty, Obamacare, and more. “It’s a good thing Univision is an official media partner of this debate so issues that matter Republican voters are covered — said...

Univision’s relentless promotion of the green agenda via in-show infomercial for the Chevy Bolt spontaneously combusted when Despierta America’s Chef Yisus inadvertently wrote the electric vehicle off as a “chick car” by saying it was “maybe not for me”, but definitely for his wife! “You
sold it to me, brother, you sold it to me. Well, maybe not for me, but for my wife, for sure”, Yisus quipped at Univision's car guru, Jaime Gabaldoni, after three-and-a-half minutes of hard-sell pitches for the vehicle's "unique" features.

GAME OVER: The FCC Greenlights Univision’s Sale of 18 Radio Stations to ‘Radio Soros’

As expected, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has cleared the way for the Soros-backed Latino Media Network’s (LMN) purchase of 18 Televisa Univision radio stations, among them Miami’s Radio Mambí. Inside Radio reported this on Monday:The FCC decision clears the way for the closing of the sale that involves 18 stations including
10 AMs and eight FMs in the largest U.S. markets, including eight of the top 10 Latino markets. Markets included are Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, Chicago, Dallas, San Antonio, McAllen, Fresno, and Las Vegas. LMN, a new company founded by social entrepreneurs Stephanie Valencia and Jess...

PANIC: Soros-Led Group Backs Purchase of 18 Univision Radio Stations

MRC Latino ^
But will “Radio Soros” be a commercial and political success, though? Hard
to tell. The former Univision America launched and folded at a time when Hispanics trusted their media institutions and the sitting Democrat president enjoyed the support of over 70% of Hispanics. This is not that time, and Joe Biden’s Hispanic support is nearly inverted in comparison to that of Barack Obama. Furthermore, “Radio Soros” can’t fill shelves with baby formula, bring gas prices down to $2/gallon, fix the border crisis or reduce crime in the cities. In sum, the move appears to be primarily fueled by panic over...

| April 19, 2022 | Amber Crawford
Crossing the Rio Grande River is a dangerous task that claims the lives of hundreds of immigrants each year. Now,
a U.S.-based network is informing prospective illegal immigrants of a class that will prepare them for the crossing and likely inspire more to attempt the journey. Univision, a Spanish-language network and media company, aired a segment that promoted a swim coach in Mexico and his efforts to teach immigrants how to illegally cross into the U.S. via the Rio Grande River. On the broadcast, Univision anchor Borja Voces introduced Mario Veneiro, the swim coach who is responsible for simulating currents...

ANTI-GUN PROPAGANDA: Univision Smears Texas's New Open Carry Law

Once again Univision shows that its liberal biases extend beyond immigration. This
time, the network misrepresented Texas’ new open-carry law recently signed by Governor Greg Abbott. Watch as Univision anchor Jorge Ramos smears the new open-carry statute, by suggesting that Texans can bear arms without undergoing a background check: JORGE RAMOS, UNIVISION: We now move to the increasingly problematic and defiant policies of Texas governor Greg Abbott. Today, he signed a law that would allow Texans to carry firearms without having to undergo a criminal background check. He said that it is a measure for liberty and self-defense. However, it...

“Dr. Jill” To The Rescue – Bails Out Joe During Univision Interview In Houston

President Biden and First Lady Jill traveled to Houston on Friday to meet with Governor Abbott and local officials in the aftermath of the winter storm that ravaged the state two weeks ago. Biden
tried to play Comforter-in-Chief. Jill was by his side in the role of his handler. Biden’s performance in Houston should alarm anyone paying attention. It is easy to understand why Jill came along. Not only did he botch the names of elected officials – including calling Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee “Shirley”, as he delivered a speech, he did himself no favors when he asked out loud, “Where...

Univision Hides Protesters At Kamala Harris Visit To Florida Restaurant

Within the space of one hour, Univision chose to omit mention of a protest (yet again), while giving the Democratic vice-presidential candidate celebrity treatment during a PR stint that included an "unannounced" visit to a Venezuelan restaurant in an effort to attract Latino voters. As
you can see from the following video that compares the Telemundo and Univision reports on Harris's trip to South Florida, Telemundo anchor Jose Diaz-Balart did acknowledge that “outside, there were also protesters with pro President Trump posters.” What he did not say was that the group, from Latinos for Trump, was there on behalf of...

Univision broke from its afternoon coronavirus newscast and delivered on a longstanding policy item: opposition to the Second Amendment and to the private ownership of firearms. But
in their coronavirus-themed rant against gun ownership, they also revealed something about themselves. Watch as Univision’s panel rant about a coronavirus-fueled increase in gun sales, and notice how Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Juan Rivera otherizes his fellow citizens: ORGE RAMOS: But as we were saying before going to commercial, something’s going on. Because in the midst of the coronavirus crisis, people’s fears are reflected in different ways. MARIA ANTONIETA COLLINS: Well yeah, some...

Former Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said the fact Obama administration deported 3 million undocumented immigrants, many of whom had no criminal records, “was a big mistake.” “We
took far too long to get it right,” Biden said in a Friday interview with Univision’s Jorge Ramos in Henderson, Nevada. Biden said the administration did not begin to “get it right” with regard to immigration until after its first term. The former vice president also did dispute that the administration deported more people than any administration before them as well as the Trump administration, though that fact has...

DNC chair Tom Perez fumbles when Univision host points out how Trump economy benefits Hispanics
|

American Thinker ^
| 11/04/2019 | Thomas Lifson
There are millions of Americans who didn't vote for Trump who have substantially benefited from the economic boom created by his tax cut and deregulation policies. The
median household income is up $5,003 before taxes for his term so far, and given the tax cuts, the after-tax total must be even higher. Racial and ethnic minorities with large numbers of low-income members have benefited tremendously from the cutoff of the supply of unskilled labor from illegal aliens, as wages have climbed steeply at that end of the scale. Beth Bauman of Townhall notes that Hispanics have particularly benefitted: The Hispanic unemployment rate currently sits at...

host, Patricia Janiot, said, “Mr. Perez, President Trump has achieved something important, especially for Latinos, which is to reduce the unemployment rate to historic lows. How then can the Democrats compete with a president that has been beneficial to Latinos on economic matters?”

| June 19, 2019 | Brent Bozell and Tim Graham
Just like its star, the showboating anti-Trumper Jorge Ramos, Univision cannot simply act like a "news" network. It's
a left-wing lobbying operation badly disguised as a "news" network. It's one thing to slant the news. It's another to enter the policy arena and fight for the left-wing agenda -- in the courts, no less. Univision has filed an amicus brief challenging the Trump administration for daring to add a question on the 2020 census that asks whether the person filling out the form is a citizen of the United States. It's a plain question. Census officials have been inquiring about...
