As a former executive producer for Univision, I keep wondering what the ultimate game plan is following the company's recent purchases.

Univision was once known as SIN and changed its name to portray one vision. It has now purchased Gawker after also buying The Onion. What is the new vision for the one-time leader in Spanish-language media?

The Fourth/Fifth Estates

Submitted by ub on

Imagine if the news media, journalism or "the press" went on vacation. What do you thinks would occur in a true democracy?

In terms of historical value, the term reportedly appeared during a parliamentary debate in 1787 on the opening up of press reporting of the House of Commons of Great Britain. The Fifth Estate is a socio-cultural reference to bloggers, journalists, and non-mainstream media outlets.

And the loser is... Losing it!

Never admits it's your fault, never apologize, and never say never, is what a loser must learn the hard way. The worst part is that it was the media who brought his star power. NBC, to be precise. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

A sore loser always looks for a quick scapegoat, instead of reflecting on mistakes. This camp pain has gotten really trashy. How low can it go?

PRESIDENT PHELPS?

We do not know if Michael Phelps is a Republican or a Democrat, but it is the opinion of CITY IMAGES that he should test our troubled waters and jump into the political pool.

Phelps represents the USA better that any candidate who is running from truth and justice in the American way. Mr. Phelps is not only the man of steel, who can steal this chaotic election, but he has proved over and beyond the shadow of a fact that he is the man of gold.

Phelps first and foremost a fine representation and an indication of the best in AMERICA.

At 90 and still clinging to power, while amassing riches as the poor people of Cuba dream of freedom and liberty, can a comandante caudillo stay healthy enough to push ahead with his Cubanism revolution?

The answer is complicated after the Cuban strongman established the first communist state in the Western Hemisphere following the violent overthrow of the military dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista in 1959. The Castro brothers have ruled over Cuba for nearly six decades. Fidel handed off power to his younger brother, Raúl in 2008.
