Corporate Liberalism

Despite recent revelations that the Pentagon may have been hiding $125 billion in wasteful spending, the Big Three networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) all knocked President-Elect Donald Trump Tuesday for tweeting his disapproval of the $4 billion price tag of two new presidential aircraft. “President-Elect Donald Trump's sparking a new controversy over Air Force One after once again, taking to social…

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.

One bad month of subscriber losses might have been considered a fluke, but two bad months in a row has to be setting off alarms at ESPN and parent company Disney. The once seemingly invincible sports juggernaut, which has exponentially increased its political posturing in the past several years, lost 621,000 subscribers a month ago, and shed another 555,000 during November (i.e., heading into…

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.

Thursday’s New York Times, the first print edition to actually deal with president-elect Donald Trump’s Wednesday morning victory, wasn’t exactly elated, judging by the banner headline: “Democrats, Students And Foreign Allies Face The Reality Of A Trump Presidency.” The headline to the day’s lead story? “Grief and Glee as an Administration Once Unthinkable Becomes Real.” Yes, it’s a liberal…

Squawk Box host Joe Kernen blasted the “mainstream media” as the election loser saying certain outlets should accept humiliation. “The mainstream media is a loser in this and not just in trying to analyze what was happening but trying to influence and affect what was happening,” Kernen said on Nov. 9.  

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…

Con el 8 de noviembre a las puertas, el presentador de noticias por televisión Jorge Ramos está redoblando su cruzada apocalíptica contra la elección de Donald Trump.

News organizations can show bias by either exaggerating details of a story, or by minimizing them. Minimization suppresses the scandalous nature of certain stories as we see, for example, through this report from last night's edition of Noticiero Univision.

In what appears to be the height of hypocrisy, Hillary Clinton has now stooped to campaigning with a Univision personality who is famous for groping his female guests on the air.

Uno de los tipos de sesgo mediático más insidiosos ocurre cuando el presentador de noticias -también conocido como ancla- enmarca una noticia neutral de manera viciada. El ejemplo más reciente de esto nos llega a través de la cobertura que Telemundo brindó a la reapertura de la pesquisa del escándalo de los emails de Hillary Clinton por el FBI.

One of the most insidious forms of bias in the media is through anchor framing of an otherwise neutral story. The most recent example comes via Telemundo's coverage of the reopened FBI investigation into the Clinton e-mail scandal.
