Corporate Liberalism

Volvió a ocurrir. La llegada de la inauguración de Donald Trump provocó otra diatriba de Jorge Ramos, con la cual el activista y periodista de Univision marcaría su resistencia. Pero revela más.

El reporte del Noticiero Univision sobre la conmutación de la sentencia de prisión del terrorista convicto de parte del expresidente Barack Obama es un ejemplo asombroso de noticia fabricada ("fake news").

Univision-owned Deadspin tried taking a swipe last night at U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), and failed miserably. Hilarity ensued, Twitter lit up, and the fallout extended well into the night. Once you stop laughing, you realize that there are legitimate questions that remain unasked - and some that merit an answer.

It happened again. As the inauguration of Donald Trump approached, Univision-Fusion journoactivist Jorge Ramos penned a screed intended to lay down a marker of resistance. But it reveals more. Per the custom, Ramos' op-ed ran first in Mexico City's Reforma, then in Univision. Per my custom, I waited until the piece was translated into English because I refuse to do Fusion's work.

Univision continues to disseminate fake news with regard to unrepentant FALN terrorist Oscar López Rivera, whose prison sentence was commuted by former President Barack Obama during his final hours in office. The latest instance of this image rehab happened on Sunday's edition of the network's weekly public affairs program, Al Punto, and featured some of the usual suspects.

Univision's report on President Barack Obama's commutation of the prison sentence of convicted terrorist Oscar Rivera López is an astounding case study in fake news. The story, which went entirely unreported on the evening ABC, CBS and NBC newscasts, took top billing on Univision newscast. 

El congresista Luis Gutiérrez publicó un editorial asombroso en El Nuevo Día de Puerto Rico a escasas horas del anuncio de que el presidente Barack Obama ordenó la conmutación de la sentencia de Oscar López Rivera. Y el mismo contiene una gran lección.

Congressman Luis Gutiérrez penned an astounding op-ed for El Nuevo Día (Puerto Rico) in the immediate aftermath of the commutation of convicted terrorist Oscar López Rivera's prison sentence. And there is a fascinating lesson within.

Univision drops a major media bombshell just two weeks after the FCC approved an amendment to the foreign-ownership rule, which enabled Mexican media giant Televisa to acquire a larger stake in the network.

Univision se apresuró a tildar la reunión entre sus ejecutivos y el presidente electo Donald Trump de "productiva". Sin embargo, la disidencia interna socava esa narrativa.

Los tiempos sin precedente traen conflicto sin precedente, y el rumor abunda en medio del conflicto- así como la especulación y la noticia falsa. Ese es el caso en medio del desenlace del conflicto entre Trump y Univision. Es importante procesar esta noticia para separar el trigo de la cizaña. 

Unprecedented times bear unprecedented conflict, and the fog of conflict is often rife with rumor, speculation, and fake news. Such is the case in the denouement of Trump v. Univision, and it is important to unpack this story and separate the wheat from the chaff.

Gran parte de nuestra cobertura de los sesgos institucionales de Univision giran en torno al hecho de que la cadena requirió cierto alivio regulatorio que tan sólo iba a llegar con una presidencia de Hillary Clinton. Pero tal parece que el gobierno saliente de Barack Obama ya le brindó a Univision una parte de ese alivio.

Univision rushed to frame its executives' meeting with President-elect Donald Trump as "productive". However, that framing is quickly coming undone from within the organization.
