Wrong. Televisa has a contract through 1017 to provide programming.

For what I heard and read, i's not Univision itself that has a dispute with Televisa. The Cisneros group's naming of the new president of Univision Network motivated Televisa to "ban" all of their roster of artists, and clebrities to appear at any event produced by Univision until Cisneros Group (which holds the largest chunk of stock of Univision Communications) lets them name a candidate and put that to a vote, and let all the stockholders decide who they want as a president of Univision Network.
Also, (alledgely) Televisa is demanding payment for programming that Univision has aired for the past six or seven months, as agreed on their long-term deal that is due to expire in 2017. If this is determined to be accurate, Televisa can file a suit to end contract on the basis of breach for non-payment.
David, can you talk about any of these two alleged reasons, without divulging any sensitive information? Whatever you can say about the current situation between Cisneros and Televisa will be helpful to understand what is going on at Univision Communications (more directly to their Television division).

Question..albeit in theory a possibity?
Could this feud between Univision and Televisa now ratcheted up to "Level Plaid/Polyester" backfire on Both networks?
I ask this because a theory I had is that this feud or war between univision and Televisa could actually help Venevision by increasing Venevision programming output and decreasing Televisa's on not only Univision, b ut its other two networks

For all practical purposes, Venevision has stopped producing product in Venzuela due to the political and economic situation. While Televisa sells its programs in something like 80 countries, all the way to Russia.

It looks to me that Televisa might end up selling programming to Telemundo (which can be helpful and dangerous), or them starting "Canal De Las Estrellas-USA".

Re: Question..albeit in theory a possibity?
Shadowman, Great theory..only one problem with it, I dont think the grand pooooooooobah of NBC-Universal will want to share Telemundo with Televisa,but I do agree maybe a Televisia USA featuring shows from ALL the televisa family of networks and stations could happen(heck if Azteca America can do it with programs from azteca trece y seite, I say why not Televisa)
David, Venevision no longer able to produce their own shows??? I dont get it, I know their version of Hitler (no offense intended)Pres. Chavez has put the clamps on most if not all freedoms,including creative freedom for the media..(gee dont THAT sound familiar) but it CANT be that bad???

Telemundo did had a deal for some of Televisa's programming to air on WKAQ TV (better known as Telemundo De Puerto Rico) until the mid to late 90's, when Univision entered the Puerto Rico TV market for the second time with a full time affilliate. They operated WBWB TV 30 from Bayamon/San Juan (with a simulcast on Channel 48 in Ponce, and Channel 16 in Mayaguez)in the 80's, although some of Univision's programming was available on WAPA.

The Cisneros family is Venezuela's richest. Supermarkets, bottling, liquor imports, security companies, real estate, and even a huge share in AOL Latin America. They are as wealthy as their Mexican counterpart, the Azcarraga family.

Re: Question..albeit in theory a possibity?
Whoa!! lets see if I got this right...
The Cisneros family is Venezuela's richest. Supermarkets, bottling, liquor imports, security companies, real estate, and even a huge share in AOL Latin America. They are as wealthy as their Mexican counterpart, the Azcarraga family.
And it just happens that Venevision opened up a miami production studio due to the vene pres putting the clamps down on every freedom known to mankind.
I still say something is up that the Azcarraga family dont realize yet and that when or if their suit against Univision goes to trial or judge or whatever it goes to,Televisa will find its programming input all of a sudden shrunk while Venevisions programming input suddenly rises.
BTW, how many years of this guy have the people from Venezulea (forgive spelling) got left before they can vote in someone better ?

Unless Simon Bolivar's ghost comes down and kills Chavez, they are stuck with he for life. He's a ruthless piece of crap thug just like his buddy and the bane of my existence Castro. I wish a vicious death to both of them, but those type of people outlive us -- they are Satan's representation on Earth.
As far as Televisa -- SCREW THEM!! and VENEVISION too while you are at it. Univision and Telemundo are big enough now that they should just start a joint production company and quit exporting American money for those second rate novelas. Oh, and am I the only one that thinks Azteca America tottally sux?
