Laura Colarusso profiles Univision and its biggest star, Jorge Ramos, "the Walter Cronkite of Hispanic news". Why Republicans can't ignore the network, which they claim leans left:

The mainstream media often provides a convenient foil for Republicans who say there is an unfair liberal bias in the press that muddies their message. To get around this perceived problem, conservatives have built alternative news outlets like Fox News and much of talk radio to directly get their point across to voters. But in a testament to its general indifference or hostility to Latinos, the right hasn’t bothered to develop Hispanic stations more sympathetic to their cause—though some in the movement are belatedly trying.
