MEXICANAL Television Network Debuts in Las Vegas

KTNV-TV and Cox Digital will bring Hispanic programming to viewers in the market 

Las Vegas, Nev. — Journal Broadcast Group Vice Chairman and CEO Doug Kiel announced today that MEXICANAL Television Network, based in Mexico, is debuting in Las Vegas on KTNV-TV digital channel 13-2 and on Cox Channel 121.  

"We're proud to be one of the first stations in the U.S. to offer this new Mexico-based programming service to viewers and advertisers," Kiel said. "With the dramatic Latino population growth in Las Vegas, we believe this will become a favorite channel in many Hispanic households. Not only will it serve an important segment of the community, but it will allow us to offer a unique opportunity in helping advertisers grow their businesses by reaching a very specific target audience." 

As part of the multicasting agreement that Journal Broadcast Group signed with the MEXICANAL Television Network in March, the company will also broadcast the Network's programming on digital stations in the Boise, Palm Springs, Calif., and Tucson markets. Those debuts on the digital channels for KIVI-TV, KMIR-TV and KGUN-TV, respectively, will happen later this year. In Las Vegas, viewers need to subscribe to Cox Digital Cable or have a television set capable of receiving digital television broadcasts in order to receive MEXICANAL. 

The MEXICANAL Network is a Mexico-based channel that targets Mexicans living and working in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Its lineup features a dynamic range of Spanish-language content encompassing news, culturally significant programs, sports, and popular entertainment from public broadcasters, independent producers and local access stations throughout Mexico. 

MEXICANAL Network's owners, Cablecom and Castalia Communications, recognized the need for programming from numerous regions throughout Mexico because the majority of Mexicans living in the U.S. come from places other than Mexico City. Signing programming affiliations with broadcasters from different states allows MEXICANAL Network to provide precisely that kind of programming. 

The program lineup features the Network's very own daily half-hour news program, "MX24 Noticias" (MX24 News), covering the top national and international news; "De Kiosko en Kiosko," in which host Cornelio Garcia visits different municipalities in Jalisco to explore their culture, customs and traditions; "Al Dia Tu Casa," a daily magazine show; "Reportajes de Alvarado," hosted by Eduardo Alvarado from different towns of Nuevo Leon; and "Experidivertido," an educational show for children. The channel also produces a number of specials throughout the year, including "El Grito de Independencia" (The Cry of Independence) and "El Dia de Muertos" (Day of the Dead).

"Our company has always strived to provide relevant programming for our viewers and listeners, and this agreement with MEXICANAL is yet another example of that commitment," Kiel added. "Their robust lineup reflects the variety of interests and backgrounds inherent to Las Vegas' Hispanic community, particularly those of Mexican descent, and we're excited by the opportunity to bring that programming to those who want it."

MEXICAN ROCKERS JAGUARES SIGN ON FOR AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL'S SMALL PLACES TOUR

SHOWS TO BE AMONG HUNDREDS OF WORLDWIDE CONCERTS.

 

Jaguares have announced their participation in Amnesty International's upcoming Small Places Tour. A hugely popular Rock group from Mexico City, Jaguares will lend their talent and energy once again to Amnesty's current campaign, which coincides with the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).

Through media interviews, ads, concerts, college visits, and community forums throughout the Americas, Jaguares will encourage audiences to join Aliados con Amnesty, a group of activists engaged in promoting human rights for Latinos that's the fastest-growing network of Amnesty International members.  The band will also participate in activism events hosted by Amnesty Aliados volunteers, and will include information about the organization with the release of their new album "45" on September 2nd.  

The Small Places Tour is unique in that artists worldwide can participate, just like Jaguares, to raise funds and awareness by performing benefit concerts, offering premium-seating packages, or auctioning off meet & greets and other unique fan experiences between September 10 and December 10. The proceeds will go towards Amnesty's UDHR 60 campaigns, which include putting a stop to torture, demanding the closure of Guantanamo, ending the killing in Darfur, preventing violence against women, protesting China's actions in Tibet, and working for the release of Aung San Sui Kyi in Burma.

For nearly half a century, Amnesty International has been fighting the good fight on behalf of the underdog and the oppressed. From Pete Townshend's "Won't Get Fooled Again" at the first Amnesty International "Secret Policeman's Ball" gala in 1979 to Green Day's stirring rendition of John Lennon's "Working Class Hero" for Amnesty's 2007 Darfur campaign, musicians and fans have always answered Amnesty's call, willing to stand on the front lines of the war to counter terror with justice and human rights.
