Noticiero Univision (Univision News) is the news division of the United States Spanish language television network Univision, along with the title of the network's nightly 6:30pm ET/5:30pm CT newscast. The national newscasts began on the network in 1981 when the network was known as the Spanish International Network, and before the network's name change in 1987 was known as Noticias SIN. The news division is based out of the network's facilities in Miami, Florida, with bureaus located at many of the network's television stations across the nation and throughout Latin America and South America. Noticiero Univision also has news share agreements with many of the national broadcast networks in those same nations and will often carry their footage and reporting with credit. Noticiero Univision uses content from Mexico's Televisa, Venezuela's Venevision, Colombia's RCN TV, Peru's América Televisión, and CNN en Español.
The newscast has been a relative ratings success, being the top evening newscast in large markets such as New York and Los Angeles.
Evening Newscast
Noticiero Univision is a general rundown of the news of the day with more of a bent towards events happening in Latin and South America, and domestically the news and issues of American Hispanics (including immigration and diplomatic relations with Latin America) are highlighted more than the issues of government, healthcare, and economic issues prevalent on the English language newscasts. Jorge Ramos and Maria Elena Salinas share the duties of anchoring the program, and have done so since 1986.
Other Programming
The news division also produces a late news program which airs at 11:30pm ET (with a 5:30am ET encore airing), Noticiero Univision Ultima Hora ("Last-Minute"), which is anchored by Enrique Gratas, Al Punto (To the Point), the only current Sunday morning talk show in Spanish, Aquí y Ahora (Here and Now), a Tuesday evening investigative newsmagazine, and provides news updates for ¡Despierta América! and Primer Impacto. Univision also provides news capsules throughout the programming day and breaks into programming if needed for breaking news events. Some newsmagazine programming from Televisa also airs during the weekend on the network.
