Se sabe que un mal perenne del periodismo es la tendencia a exagerar la nota, sobre todo al presentar cuán “mal” están las cosas. En el caso de Telemundo, esta inclinación también incluye caracterizaciones altamente cuestionables e irresponsables, como sucedió durante su cobertura del primero año de la presidencia de Donald Trump.

For a second year, the networks are favoring a march supporting abortion and other lefty causes over a march for life. During their Saturday news shows the first evening of the Women’s March, ABC, CBS and NBC spent a total of 6 minutes, 43 seconds highlighting the event. In comparison, following Friday’s March for Life, the three broadcast networks spent just 2 minutes, 6 seconds on the pro-life…

Over the weekend, several police officers were shot and injured in Pennsylvania in an apparent terrorist attack by a man from Egypt. CBS has so far managed to stand out by completely ignoring the story as ABC, NBC, CNN, FNC and MSNBC have all to some extent given attention to the subject.

El perdón del presidente Trump al ex sheriff del condado de Maricopa Joe Arpaio es ahora el tema de un aviso publicitario de Telemundo, en el cual la cadena hermana en español de NBC trata con desprecio abierto tanto al presidente Trump como al veterano policía de 85 años de edad.  

Una vez más, Telemundo confla la inmigración legal con la ilegal, y se presta para tachar de "antiinmigrante" a cualquiera que se atreva a defender el cumplimiento de las leyes migratorias de este país. Esta vez, la cadena lo hizo con Bill O'Reilly a su salida de la cadena Fox News.

Once again Telemundo conflates legal immigration with illegal immigration, and levels the seemingly all-purpose 'anti-immigrant' smear at anyone who dares advocate for the enforcement of federal immigration laws. This time, the network did so by kicking Bill O'Reilly on his way out of Fox News.

Debería reconocerse que hay una diferencia sustancial y notoria entre alguien que se opone a la inmigración -- una persona a quien de manera concebible y legítima podría clasificarse de "antiinmigrante" --y alguien que es partidario de la inmigración legal al país pero se opone a la inmigración ilegal, a quien claramente no se aplica la etiqueta amplia de "antiinmigrante" y que hacerlo constituye…

El patrón de la cobertura noticiosa de la filtración en el mismo día de los comentarios vulgares de Donald Trump sobre las mujeres en comparación con los comprometedores mensajes de correo electrónico provenientes desde adentro de la campaña de Clinton, ilustran el alcance impactante del sesgo político que sigue dominando los programas noticiosos de las dos cadenas de televisión en español más…

The pattern of news coverage following the same-day leak of both Donald Trump’s off-color, 2005 hot mic comments alongside compromising emails from within the Clinton campaign illustrates the staggering extent of the political bias that continues to dominate the morning and evening news programs on the nation’s top two Spanish-language television networks.

“That Mexican thing” - Republican vice presidential candidate Mike Pence’s phrase expressing his exasperation at Senator Tim Kaine’s repeated crassly dishonest, incomplete reference to remarks made by Donald Trump upon announcing his presidential campaign – is itself now being distorted and negatively characterized by the chief news anchors of the nation’s top two Spanish-language television…

As expected, the top domestic Spanish-language network newscasts each led with reporting on Hillary Clinton's medical incident while at Sunday's 9/11 commemoration ceremony. However, coverage of the same was divergent in scope and framing. One network echoed the rest of the establishment media's coverage of the story, while the other kept focus on the very aspect that the others tried to bury.

The classic definition of the term "gaffe" as established by liberal pundit Michael Kinsley is "when a politician accidentally tells the truth". On Sunday's edition of Enfoque, we witnessed a staggering variant of such an accidental truth, which may even warrant its own separate name and definition.

Tras su reciente reunión con su nuevo Consejo de Asesores Hispanos, la especulación de que Donald Trump está cambiando su postura sobre la inmigración ha dominado continuamente la cobertura de noticias en las principales cadenas televisivas de habla hispana en el país.

Following his recent meeting with his new Hispanic Advisory Council, speculation that Donald Trump is changing his stance on immigration has continued to dominate the news coverage on the nation’s top Hispanic television networks.
