“John Edwards has not taken a definitive position on abortion. Hillary Clinton’s position on the issue is that “she will fight for the defense of children.” And Barack Obama wants taxes to be “as low as possible.”
Each of these statements is misleading, at best. Mr. Edwards and Mrs. Clinton support “a woman’s right to choose” and Mr. Obama wants to repeal the Bush tax cuts. But on Univision, a Spanish-language TV network with an average prime-time audience of about 3.5 million viewers, these and other slanted statements about the presidential candidates are commonplace.
These statements appeared on Univision’s Web site, but like much of the network’s reporting, were missed by the mainstream media because they appeared only in Spanish. I have taken an extensive look at Univision and found that these are a tiny fraction of the biased views of American politics regularly presented by the network.”
