En un evidente intento de facilitar un mejor entendimiento de su teleaudiencia a la popularidad de Donald Trump entre el electorado estadounidense, el principal noticiero vespertino de Univisión consultó a dos académicos de tendencia izquierdista, radicados en Washington, que compararon a Trump con líderes populistas de Latinoamérica, quienes también recientemente han apelado al amplio descontento con las políticas de siempre, la corrupción y la clase política tradicional.

In an evident attempt to help their viewers get a handle on the popularity of Donald Trump among the U.S. electorate, Univision’s principal evening newscast recently consulted two left-leaning, Washington-based academics who compared Trump to outsider, populist leaders in Latin America who have also recently successfully appealed to widespread voter dissatisfaction with politics as usual, corruption and the traditional political class.

While the climate change content in Pope Francis’s new encyclical has been heavily covered by Univision, Telemundo and MundoFox, other core teachings in the encyclical, on such bedrock issues as abortion and gender, continue to be entirely ignored by these networks.

Mientras los contenidos sobre cambio climático de la nueva encíclica del papa Francisco han sido ampliamente reseñados por Univisión, Telemundo y MundoFox, otras enseñanzas claves del documento papal sobre el aborto y género han sido completamente ignoradas por estas cadenas.

Mientras el Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos evalúa una posible redefinición a nivel federal sobre el matrimonio, Pablo Gato de Univisión fue el único corresponsal entre las principales cadenas televisivas del país que cubrió la reciente Marcha Nacional por el Matrimonio, en la cual miles de personas manifestaron su apoyo contundente por la naturaleza intrínsecamente heterosexual de la institución milenaria del matrimonio.
De forma irónica, el único político que habló ante el cónclave fue Rubén Díaz, un senador estatal demócrata del estado de Nueva York. Díaz fue acompañado por una multitud entusiasta de latinos católicos y evangélicos que respaldan la institución del matrimonio entre un hombre y una mujer como la unidad social fundacional de la civilización humana.

As the United States Supreme Court weighs whether or not to effectively re-define marriage at the national level, Univision’s Pablo Gato was the only major network correspondent to cover the recent National March for Marriage in which thousands of people from across the country gathered in Washington to voice their support for marriage as a uniquely male-female institution.
Ironically, the only elected official to speak at the event was a Democratic state senator from New York, Rev. Rubén Díaz, who was accompanied by a surprisingly large, spirited contingent of evangelical and Catholic Latinos who uphold the sanctity of traditional marriage as the core unit of human civilization.

The first major network news program to take notice of the National March for Marriage that will take place in the Nation’s Capital on Saturday was not on one of the English-language networks, but on Spanish-language MundoFox.
What apparently drew the attention of MundoFox to the event, which is being held three days before the U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments to either uphold or strike down state marriage laws defining marriage as a male-female relationship, was the expected high-level of participation in the March by pro-traditional marriage Latinos.

El primer programa nacional de noticias en cubrir la Marcha Nacional por el Matrimonio, que tendrá lugar la capital estadounidense este sábado, no fue una cadena de habla inglesa, sino la hispana Noticias MundoFox.
La causa que aparentemente atrajo la atención de MundoFox sobre el evento es la esperada alta participación de latinos que defienden el matrimonio tradicional. La marcha se realizará tres días antes de que la Corte Suprema escuche argumentos para decidir sobre mantener o desechar leyes estatales que definen el matrimonio como entre una relación entre un hombre y una mujer.

More often than not, it seems as though Univision cannot complete the day’s newscast without mention of at least one immigration-related story. This persistent fixation on the heated topic of immigration blatantly ignores the fact that though the Latino community is affected by it, it is not defined by it.
In view of the upcoming 2016 presidential elections, once again immigration is being portrayed as the sole determinant of a candidate’s ability to woo the Latino voter.
