MSNBC contributor Paola Ramos fired the latest volley in The Great Latinx War while sitting in for weekend host Zerlina Maxwell. But her characterization of critics of the term may be more of a friendly-fire incident.

For a brief moment Univision, the nation's leading Spanish-language network, showed moral clarity by reporting a story unfavorable to Democrats in an unbiased manner. 

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus is nothing if not ambitious. First, they came for a Miami AM radio station whose content they didn’t like. Now, they are trying to haul Big Tech CEOs before Congress in order to whip them into fighting Spanish-language “disinformation” online and on social media.

The collusive relationship between Big Tech and corporate media continues apace, as do efforts to control Hispanics' access to the free flow of information. The latest instance comes via a collaboration between Google, Telemundo, and MediaWise intended to curb Spanish-language "disinformation".

The nation's Spanish-speaking media spoke with one voice during Biden's inaugural -- now a year ago. Unfortunately, that singular voice spoke false hope of immigration relief to an eager and receptive audience. 

Univision pounced at a chance to vilify Supreme Court Justice Gorsuch over "Maskgate", which was based on an NPR report. Unfortunately, Univision viewers were treated to two big lies long after the NPR report was debunked.

National media prove once again that bigoted statements from candidates are acceptable so long as they are targeted at the correct minorities. The latest case in point comes via Florida Democrat gubernatorial candidate and MSNBC regular Nikki Fried.

An alarming number – roughly half – of undocumented immigrants released into the U.S. by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from March to August of 2021, didn't show up for their deportation proceedings. But for Univision anchor Patricia Janiot, the only downside of the disquieting revelation appeared to have been how it's “ammunition” for those who oppose Biden's free-for-all open…

Once again, Univision took a cheap shot at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R). And once again, they've missed. This time, the network omitted critical information as they carried a potential opponent's water by pushing out a half-baked story over rapid tests that expired due to low demand.

​Los canales en español de la nación se suman al esfuerzo de los medios corporativos para ganar ratings con su propia programación especial en conmemoración al "ataque a la democracia por parte de los seguidores del presidente Donald Trump"; en Univisión, el especial lleva el nombre de "Asalto al Capitolio: La democracia a prueba"; en Telemundo, es un "Ataque a la Democracia". Pero no hace…

The nation’s Spanish-speaking media are joining the corporate media's effort to goose their ratings with their own special programming to commemorate the “attack on democracy by the followers of President Donald Trump”; at Univision, the special goes by the name of “Assault to the Capitol: Testing Democracy”; at Telemundo, it´s an “Attack on Democracy”. But it wasn't that long ago that these…

Telemundo anchor Nacho Lozano was fine covering the recent Axios/Ipsos/Telemundo poll of Hispanics in the United States, until he realized it also polled abortion.

Univisión se apresta a celebrar la Nochevieja con una rimbombante programación especial en la que participará destacadas estrellas de la música latina. Entre los intérpretes invitados, se encuentra el rapero Farruko quien cantará su éxito ´Pepas´, una selección que nos lleva a preguntar: ¿Por qué Univisión decidió darle pauta a este himno al consumo de drogas ilegales en un especial diz que…

Univision has big plans for its New Years' Eve special, featuring a lineup of popular Hispanic artists. Among them, rapper Farruko is set to perform “his chart-topping hit Pepas” (Pills), which begs the question: why does Univision's show, billed as “filled with love, music, and culture, for the entire family”, feature this ode to pill-popping?
