From the Left, Univision Bashes Bush
When Univision highlighted Bush’s speech in its nightly news broadcast, true to form, it focused solely on immigration.

NYT to GOP: Submit to Univision or Face Doom
The central premise of a recent New York Times article is simple enough: If only Republicans were to submit to Univision on immigration, then they may receive more favorable coverage that does not depict them to the network’s Hispanic viewership as hateful, racist, anti-immigrant monsters, and then they may have a chance to garner more of the Hispanic vote, with the blessing of the community’s…

Univision’s Jorge Ramos Goes 'Full Gutierrez'
There was much outrage and strong reaction upon release of the 2016 GOP presidential debate schedule and its exclusion of Univision.

Univision’s Fernando Espuelas Doubles Down
A few days ago, we shined a light on Univision’s Fernando Espuelas. His on-air response, on the Univision America radio network, was quite interesting, to say the very least.

Meet Univision’s Progressive Soul: Fernando Espuelas
Jorge Ramos casts a large shadow over Univision’s news operations, and is still held in high regard as a journalist among his peers and the audience he serves, notwithstanding recent exhortations to colleagues to drop the pretense of neutrality. Univision’s nationally syndicated radio operation - on the other hand - is dominated by a fiery leftist demagogue with no journalistic pretense, and no…

On Univision, Rep. Gutierrez Tells Obama: It’s Time to Pay Up
Univision anchor Jorge Ramos was in full “advocate-in-chief” mode during his Al Punto talk show this week.
