In keeping with its long record of anti-law enforcement news coverage, the nation’s largest Spanish-language network, Univision, failed to include the United States Border Patrol’s perspective about the findings of a new internal agency investigation that exonerated 64 of 67 Border Patrol agents involved in shooting incidents while in the line of duty between 2010 and 2012. Instead, the report on…

ABC’s World News Tonight aired a preview clip on Tuesday of Good Morning America co-host George Stephanopoulos’s interview with 2016 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in which Trump battled the former Clinton official over remarks he made during his announcement speech about illegal immigration and his plans to build a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico.

I'm impressed by the coolness and steadiness of our media in suppressing any news about immigration. It's as if they've built a triple-layer fence with border guards around immigration topics. And guess what? Their fence is working!

Univision’s habit of championing the presence of unauthorized immigrants was on full display in its coverage of a recent speech on immigration by Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson. During the network’s morning show, Despierta América, host Satcha Pretto hyped what she called Johnson’s “solid defense of more than 11 million undocumented immigrants.”

El hábito de la cadena hispanohablante, Univisión, de defender la presencia de inmigrantes indocumentados, sobresalió nuevamente durante un reciente reportaje sobre un discurso de Jeh Johnson, Secretario del Departamento de Seguridad Interna.

In the wake of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling against a request from the Obama administration to move forward with his executive amnesty, MSNBC and Telemundo anchor José Díaz-Balart invited two activists from opposite ends of the ideological spectrum - LIBRE Executive Director Dan Garza and the Texas Organizing Project’s Alain Cisneros - to discuss the ruling and the topic of…

New polling showing high levels of dissatisfaction with the Obama administration’s handling of federal immigration policy, as well as majority support for doing “a lot” more to reduce illegal immigration, has so far been ignored by the nation’s top Spanish-language television networks.

Un nuevo sondeo que muestra altos niveles de insatisfacción con la forma en que el gobierno de Obama está manejando la política migratoria, así como una mayoría que apoya hacer “mucho más” para reducir la inmigración ilegal, ha sido ignorado hasta ahora por las mayores cadenas hispanoparlantes.

In Thursday’s edition of stories ignored by the top English and Spanish networks, the six of them declined to report that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has admitted that illegal immigrants could apply for back taxes under President Obama’s amnesty plan as well as a report by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that fracking does not harm drinking water.

Reporting on Tuesday’s NBC Nightly News, NBC's Chuck Todd hyped the size of the 2016 Republican presidential campaign with the rise in “vanity candidates” and wondered to GOP presidential candidate Lindsey Graham if “Hispanics are justified in believing the Republican Party doesn't care about them right now.”

During an interview with Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum, Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd appeared visibly shocked when his guest argued that Democrats support amnesty because “they can win more elections.” In response to Santorum, Todd acted indignant and interjected: “You think that the Democrats are for immigration, for more immigration, simply for politics, for votes, they…

A pro-amnesty, anti-deportation organization whose goal is to “get Immigration and Customs Enforcement out of our communities” recently tried to stop the deportation of a drunk-driving convict, alleging to MundoFox that the man should be spared from deportation because of his record of service as a member of their organization.
