Telemundo, one of the nation’s leading Spanish-language media networks, has taken to playing into stereotypes, making it seem like there is something inherently wrong with Latinos who oppose sanctuary policies that seek to shield from federal authorities those who are unlawfully present in the country.

In a slightly over three-minute report, the Spanish-language sister network to NBC displayed for two full minutes a banner reading “A War of Hate Runs Through California” as correspondent Francisco Cuevas profiled the opponents of sanctuary policies in California. In his introduction to the story, anchor Julio Vaqueiro explicitly expressed amazement that Latinos are among what he called the “anti-immigrant activists" who oppose the state’s sanctuary policies.

JULIO VAQUEIRO, ANCHOR, TELEMUNDO: A Telemundo News investigation revealed that many of the anti-immigrant activists are the same ones that invade the communities one by one and join the discussion even if they don’t live there and what is ironic is that several of them are Latinos. Francisco Cuevas has the report. MILITARY VETERAN: You don't know the price of freedom. We do…. FRANCISCO CUEVAS, CORRESPONDENT, TELEMUNDO: It is an intense war full of hate.

With his words dripping with disdain, Cuevas goes on to interview Elsa Algeduer, Latino Director at Make California Great Again, who he introduces as a “character” – a word you will never hear used to describe liberal activists.

Telemundo’s blatantly liberal bias cracks through the complete report, including when Cuevas questions another prominent Latina anti-sanctuary activist, Ingrid Muller, about whether she is being paid “by special groups to go from city to city to put pressure on the councils”. Really, has Telemundo ever asked that question of the scores of liberal activists that constantly appear on its programs?

In fact, MRC Latino possesses extensive video archives of multiple liberal activists from organizations such as Casa de Maryland and others who routinely disrupt politicians at events held in districts where they don’t live. Senator Marco Rubio was also memorably stalked by such activists during his presidential campaign.

Much to the evident chagrin of Telemundo, the anti-sanctuary activists are having an effect in the communities, with nearly a dozen local governments in California voting to oppose the state's sanctuary law designed to curtail cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities.

Below is a complete transcript of the above-referenced report, as broadcast on the April 6, 2018 edition of Noticias Telemundo.
