Univision

The nation’s two top Spanish-language public affairs shows led once again this week with coverage of Donald Trump’s campaign, with many interesting takeaways and conclusion from both programs. At this point, Univision is about to transform into The Trump Channel, so prevalent is its coverage of Trumpmania.

On Monday night, all three of the major broadcast networks covered the impending release of more e-mails from Hillary Clinton’s private e-mail server, but largely kept their coverage to a minimum before moving onto dissecting the latest 2016 polls on the Republican and Democratic sides. All told, the networks spent one minute and 42 seconds on Clinton’s e-mails and news that 150 of them have been…

This week, Univision "news" anchor Jorge Ramos uses a press conference to berate Donald Trump on his immigration plan: "It's full of empty promises. You cannot deport 11 million undocumented immigrants....[A border wall is] a completely unnecessary waste of time and money and resources." At the same time, CNN finds "fun" in Hillary Clinton's dismissive approach to the growing scandal about her…

La copresentadora de Jorge Ramos entró con todas las ganas a la reyerta mediática entre él y Donald Trump, y su columna editorial es verdaderamente algo insólito. Aquí hay un enlace a la columna completa, pero dejemos a un lado, por el momento, la floridez y verbosidad del despotrique de Salinas. Hay varias cosas dentro de la columna a las cuales quiero llamar su atención:

Jorge Ramos' longtime co-anchor shot all the way in on the Jorge Ramos trollfest, and her editorial column really has to be seen to be believed. Here it is full text in all its glory (link to Spanish-language original here)

Cuando Jorge Ramos irrumpió en la conferencia de prensa de Donald Trump en Iowa, lo hizo con el claro intento de incitar a una confrontación. Su misma colega María Elena Salinas admitió que la misión de Ramos era de “cuestionar, denunciar, y exponer.”

When Jorge Ramos trolled Donald Trump’s press conference in Iowa, he clearly did so with the intent to initiate a confrontation. By his own co-anchor María Elena Salinas’ admission, Ramos was there to “question, denounce, and expose”. His acts were not of journalism, but of agenda activism. The undisputed fact is that Jorge Ramos ASKED NO QUESTIONS when he addressed Trump, launching instead into…

While it may be a shock that the major broadcast networks on Thursday night reported that Hillary Clinton compared Republicans to “terrorists” on women’s health, it was far from a surprise that ABC and NBC openly cheered her for “coming out swinging” “on the offensive” with some “tough talk.” In addition, ABC, CBS, and NBC all refused to denounce Clinton’s comparison even though they chastised…

La confrontación surreal acaecida entre el presentador de Univisión Jorge Ramos y el precandidato presidencial por el Partido Republicano, Donald Trump, fue el mejor ejemplo posible de lo que ocurre cuando intersecan el periodismo, las agendas, el activismo político, y los intereses comerciales. 

Reston, Virginia - Brent Bozell, presidente del Centro de Investigación Mediática (MRC, por sus siglas en inglés) y el director de MRC Latino, Ken Oliver Méndez emitieron las siguientes declaraciones, tras el reciente craso abandono de los estándares y protocolos periodísticos por parte del presentador Jorge Ramos, de Univisión y Fusión.

Media Research Center (MRC) President Brent Bozell and MRC Latino Director Ken Oliver-Mendez issued the following statements in the wake of Univision/Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos’ crass abandonment last night of professional journalism standards and protocol.

Tuesday night’s surreal exchange between Univision/Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos and GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump was the greatest single example of what happens at the intersection of journalism, agenda advocacy, political partisanship, and special business interests. 

At the top of Wednesday’s NBC Today, co-host Matt Lauer described how Univision anchor Jorge Ramos was “kicked out of a Donald Trump news conference” on Tuesday and wondered: “Can Trump’s confrontational style carry him all the way to the White House or will it wear thin with voters?” Peter Alexander proclaimed: “To be clear, Jorge Ramos is the most powerful newsman in Spanish-language TV. He's…

In the first major network news program since 2016 GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump sparred with liberal Fusion/Univision anchor Jorge Ramos at a press conference on the subject of illegal immigration, ABC’s Nightline was there to circle the wagons for their Disney partner and “America’s best known Latino anchorman.”
