“CNN en Español started to evolve in 2010 when it went from mainly being a headlines channel to one with programming that engages with more accessible formats, social and digital presence and enhancing the newscasts by hiring analysts and prestigious anchors. Now, they have production studios in Miami, Mexico, Los Angeles and Washington. Seven years later, we have a dynamic channel with a highly engaged Latin audience,” expressed Jeff Zucker, president of CNN Worldwide, when kicking off the Upfront and celebration of the signal´s 20th anniversary.
Zucker had warm words of gratitude for Cynthia Hudson, senior VP and general manager of CNN en Español and Hispanic Strategy at CNN US, who was unable to attend due to health issues.
Cathy Reyes, director Programming, highlighted that they produce 14 hours of live programming daily, and mentioned among the channel’s contents new episodes of CNN Docufilms dedicated to personalities such as Princess Diana, Elvis Presley, Charlie Chaplin and Christian Dior; the special Deportados; the series Los Influyentes, dedicated to the channel´s 20th anniversary in four different genres -finances, sports, entertainment and politics- and Deportes CNN, present in Russia for the coverage of the 2018 World Soccer Cup.
During the event, several of the channel´s talents, such as Patricia Janiot, Juan Carlos López, Chief Correspondant of CNN en Español in Washington DC and Fernando del Rincón, from Conclusiones and the new show Fuentes Confiables were seen on the stage.
