Univision – heading into a closing with Haim Saban’s group – faces more flack from Televisa.
October 13, 2006
According to Inside Radio, Televisa supplies the wildly popular telenovelas that generate much of Univision’s TV revenues and was expected to be a bidder for Univision when Jerry Perenchio put it on the block. The bid never came through – but Univision reveals that Televisa lodged “an additional notice of purported breaches” of their licensing agreement, related to ad sales and editing of Televisa shows. Will this stop the sale that includes Univision Radio? Probably not – but it could delay it and add more uncertainty about the future of those telenovelas.
