During his 13-year career at FIC, he is widely credited with bringing the division’s channels in Latin America, including Fox, National Geographic and FX to record ratings. Additionally, in his former role, Saccone oversaw the production houses Fox Toma 1 and FoxTelecolombia, which produced multiple hit series such as Kdabra (Fox Latin America), El Capo (RCN), Tabú (Nat Geo), La Mariposa (RCN) and Mental (Fox), the only U.S. broadcast network series ever produced entirely in Latin America. “We are delighted to have Emiliano on board as the president of MundoFox. His excellent track record of innovation in production, marketing and programming, as well as his solid commercial instincts, will prove invaluable to the success of our new network,” said Hernán López, president and CEO of FIC.In his new post, Saccone will oversee the broadcast network and its programming, acquisitions, affiliate relations and production; in addition to being be tasked with growing MundoFox’s ratings and reach. Earlier this month, FIC announced that it had secured affiliates in 20 DMAs for its new Hispanic broadcast network, representing over 40% of U.S. Hispanic households, and expected to exceed its original goal of securing distribution in 75% of U.S. Hispanic households by launch.“I am looking forward to building a network that delivers quality content to an underserved audience,” said Saccone. MundoFox is set to launch in time for this 2012 fall season.
