NBC to Launch Latest in Series of New Latino Web Sites

Washington Post, December 16, 2011

NBC is launching the latest in a slew of new English-language Latino online news sites.

The managing editor of NBCLatino.com, Chris Pena, says the site will launch in early 2012 but did not give a specific date. {snip}

Pena says the new site will leverage NBC Universal’s resources, including those of its Spanish-language network Telemundo. It will focus on the U.S. Hispanic community.

Telemundo’s rival, Spanish-language giant Univision already has a similar English-language news site and Facebook page. Last year, Fox News unveiled its online Fox News Latino. And The Huffington Post recently launched Huffpost LatinoVoices.
