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.

Estrella TV, con sede en Los Ángeles, siempre ha tenido una gran afición por el drama y la exageración. Por lo tanto, no es de extrañar que los presentadores y reporteros de la cadena estén haciendo su agosto con reportes saturados de su insigne estilo de pornografía de pánico en toda su cobertura sobre el coronavirus de Wuhan.

Los Angeles-based Estrella TV has a penchant for drama and exaggeration. Therefore it’s no surprise that the network’s anchors and reporters are having a field day covering the Wuhan coronavirus, delivering their very unique brand of panic-porn. 

Our nation’s leading Spanish-language networks are not exempt from being susceptible to Chinese propaganda, as Telemundo has recently displayed. Read the full post and watch the embedded video as Telemundo’s news programming pushed three separate instances of Communist Chinese propaganda.

RESTON, VA – El Centro de Investigación de Medios publicó el martes en la tarde una carta abierta al presidente Donald Trump a nombre de 39 líderes del movimiento conservador. En la misma, exige "una investigación formal para descubrir la verdad” detrás de las acciones del gobierno chino en relación al surgimiento del coronavirus de Wuhan.

If polling is correct, then socialist Senator Bernie Sanders is on his way to a resounding defeat in Florida’s Democratic presidential primary. But that won’t stop the nation’s leading Spanish-language network from boosting Sanders to the bitter end.

El 10 de marzo, el noticiero vespertino de Univisión reportó la forma desacertada en que Joe Biden le contestó a un trabajador de fábrica durante su visita a Michigan. Sin embargo, a pesar de haber mostrado el lenguaje vulgar del candidato demócrata, el noticiero dejó fuera el preciso momento cuando Biden amenazó con abofetear al obrero después de llamarle "pende…"

A medida que el COVID-19 continúa propagándose, también lo hacen los comentarios insidiosos de presentadores como Juan Carlos López, de CNN En Español, quien convirtió un informe sobre las medidas preventivas correctas para tomar contra el virus en una oportunidad para burlarse del representante estadounidense Matt Gaetz, llamándole payaso por ir a trabajar con una careta de gas.

On March 10th, Univision’s evening newscast Biden’s unhinged response against an automotive worker during his visit to Michigan. While the vulgar language covered by the Democratic nominee was shown, the key feature in which Biden threatened to slap the worker along with calling him a “horse’s a**” was completely ignored.

Not even a call for unity will stop Telemundo from putting a negative spin on anything related to the Trump administration. Telemundo White House Correspondent Cristina Londoño shredded the President's Oval Office address to the nation in a report for the network´s Un Nuevo Día morning kaffeeklatsch, wherein she insisted on describing it as “causing more confusion, more nervousness.”

One of the lead debate moderators for CNN’s Sunday night debate is Univision anchor Jorge Ramos – a journalist so opposed to Donald Trump he was actually thrown out of a 2015 campaign event for being so rude. Since then, Ramos and his network Univision have railed against Trump on immigration and fueled the rise of the most left-wing candidate in the race – the openly socialist Senator Bernie…

The Hispanophone media´s penchant for hyperbole went on full display at Telemundo´s Al Rojo Vivo with Maria Celeste Arraras, who devoted the entire edition of the news magazine that aired on Wednesday, March 10, 2020 to countering President Trump's call for the use of sanity vs. panic, regarding the threat of the coronavirus spreading in the United States.

Joe Biden’s rise from the ash heap to Democratic frontrunner, while remarkable unto itself, is also remarkable for the manner in which it exposed the nation’s domestic Spanish-language media’s agenda-driven journalism. The networks built a narrative which centered around making Bernie Sanders a “Latino” candidate with which to flex power and influence.

Durante el mes de febrero de 2020, MRC Latino analizó la cobertura de las primarias demócratas. El resultado de este análisis muestra que Bernie Sanders dominó la cobertura tanto en Univisión como en Telemundo, obteniendo casi el doble de tiempo en el aire que los otros candidatos demócratas.
