For Sale : Univision

Thu09Feb2006

Univision may be putting a "For Sale" sign on themselves. The Spanish Language media company is considering putting themselves up for auction to the highest bidder. The company, worth about $10 billion, owns the No. 1 Spanish-language television network, radio broadcaster, Music Company and online operations. Univision is the broadcast home of Don Francisco's Sabado Gigante, the talk show of the Latina Oprah, Cristina, and of course novelas. But did you know that:

The company is run by A. Jerrold Perenchio...who does not speak Spanish, [and] has also been a big contributor to President Bush and the Republican Party.

Think of that when you switch on your TV.
