Bozzo Bows Out at Telemundo, Moves to Televisa

“After six years as Telemundo’s leading lady of daytime talk, Laura Bozzo will step away from the NBC Universal-owned network and into daypart programming at competitor Grupo Televisa, according to sources. While not completely unexpected, Bozzo decided last week to stop production of TV talk show Laura en América in July, when her contract expires.

“She’s a huge talent,” says Alfredo Richard, corporate spokesman for Miami-based Telemundo, which continued to work with Bozzo during the three years she was under house arrest in Lima, Peru. (She was charged with taking bribes from a former Peruvian government official.) The 4 p.m. weekday show averages 1.1 million daily viewers in the U.S., with a 16 share of the audience.”
