Univision

Para Jorge Ramos el imperativo moral más grande de su vida evidentemente es frustrar la aplicación de las leyes de inmigración de Estados Unidos.

For Jorge Ramos, evidently the greatest moral imperative in his life is to thwart the enforcement of U.S. immigration law. What else can explain the decision of the self-professed former Catholic, agnostic senior news anchor of Univision to use the fleeting seconds of his only encounter to date with Pope Francis to plead on behalf of 'the immigrants who Trump wants to deport'?

The media’s post-election treatment of President-elect Donald Trump has gone from downright ridiculous to downright terrifying. On December 8, the liberal news site Fusion posted a cartoon titled, “The Best Case Scenarios Under Trump.” One of the four scenarios suggested Trump’s assassination.

Queda claro que muchos en Univision aún tratan de procesar lo que ocurrió el mes pasado. Esto fue muy evidente en la más reciente edición de Al Punto, donde tanto al anfitrión como al invitado se les hizo difícil entender el desenlace de las pasadas elecciones.

It is clear that many at Univision are still trying to process what happened last month. This much was evident on the most recent edition of the network's weekly public affairs program, Al Punto, as both host and guest struggled to understand the outcome of the election.

Receintemente informamos sobre la manera en que Univision era el mayor perdedor mediático de este ciclo electoral, dado todo lo que estaba en juego para la cadena. Esas repercusiones han comenzado a sentirse en tiempo real y en las vidas de personas reales.

Es de constancia en el récord que la prensa estáblishment nacional fue el gran perdedor de la recién concluída elección presidencial estadounidense, habiendo sido sorprendida por la elección de Donald J. Trump a la presidencia de los Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, la telecadena que más apostó y más perdió tambien parecer ser la menos que aprendió.

Al presentador de Univision Jorge Ramos le tomó apenas tres segundos para marcar el tono de la edición post-Fidel de su progama semanal de discusión de asuntos políticos Al Punto. Con una sola frase, Ramos puso en evidencia al resto de la prensa estáblishment.

It took Univision/Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos all of three seconds to set the tone of the post-Fidel Castro edition of his weekly public affairs shows, Al Punto. With a single sentence, Ramos put the rest of the establishment media to shame.

We recently reported on how Univision was the biggest media loser from this election cycle, given all that was at stake for the network. Those ramifications have begun to play out in real time and are now affecting real lives.

As we mentioned earlier, no media outlet had a bigger stake in this presidential election (and lost more resoundingly) than Univision. On an individual basis, there is no larger loser than the network's star anchor Jorge Ramos. 

It is a matter of record that establishment national media lost big on Election Day, having been stunned by the election of Donald J. Trump to the presidency of the United States. But the network that had the most at stake and lost the most in this election seems to have also learned the least.

To cap off his coverage of the 2016 presidential election cycle, Univision and Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos hosted a documentary, titled “Hate Rising”, designed to hammer home the central narrative of his election coverage: that Donald Trump represents a racist, hate-driven threat of virtually Hitlerian proportions to the Latino and immigrant population of the United States.

Here at MRC Latino, our long-standing position has been to point out Univision/Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos' refusal, despite an eagerness to opine on other matters and his long-running feud against Donald Trump, to take any sort of stand against the apparent corruption and public lies of Hillary Clinton as pertains to the ongoing email and Clinton Foundation scandals. But it is our duty to point…
