It’s our lengthy held perception that Univision is, essentially, an immigration advocacy group with broadcast licensing. A latest report from North Carolina extolling lively obstruction of ICE operations proves this level.
Watch as a North Carolina man describes protecting silent as a way to lead ICE to imagine he’s within the nation illegally, as a way to defend his father from deportation:

ALFARO: He says he stayed there for about quarter-hour with out shifting, listening because the brokers searched the place.
It’s price noting that this report ran on prime A-block, so dedicated is Univision to advocating for open borders and unfettered immigration. The report opens with the younger man giving an indication of how he activated his telephone remotely so he might tip his father off as to the worksite raid.
