MundoFox ¡Y Ya! |
Noticias MundoFox was the national news division of the Spanish-language network, MundoFox, that was previously co-owned by the Fox Networks Group division of 21st Century Fox and RCN Television. The weeknightly news broadcast of the same name was hosted by Rolando Nichols with correspondents Carolina Sarassa and Max Aub. Following RCN acquiring Fox's share of MundoFox, the channel itself was renamed MundoMax and the newscast was cancelled on July 28, 2015 following the final broadcast the day prior (July 27).
RCN Television's NTN24 was the primary content provider for Noticias MundoFox, which had access to the bureaus of NTN24 and have its talent will appear on the newscast.
Noticias MundoFox has a newsroom based in Los Angeles, California (making it the only major U.S.-based network news division that is not headquartered in the Eastern United States) with bureaus in Mexico City, Washington, D.C., Chicago and New York City; airing on weekdays, four live half-hour editions of its main newscast are broadcast for the Eastern and Central Time Zones at 5:30 p.m. ET (2:30 p.m. PT) and for the Mountain and Pacific Time Zones at 5:30 p.m. PT (8:30 p.m. ET), as well as a live program MundoFox ¡Y Ya! for both coasts, which airs live at 5 and 10 p.m.
Noticias MundoFox's official tagline, which is used in the introduction, is "El Primer noticiero en la tarde y el unico producido en vivo para ambas costas", when translated means, "The only (national) newscast in the early evening and the only newscast produced live for both the East and West coasts". The tagline is in reference to MundoFox being the only network to air its national newscasts an hour earlier than its English and Spanish competitors, which airs their newscasts at 6:30 p.m. and airs a pre-recorded edition for the West coast.
Jorge Mettey, SVP of News for MundoFox was quoted as saying, “We are targeting Latinos, especially young Latinos who probably feel more comfortable speaking in English, but they do understand Spanish, and obviously we are also targeting Latinos who speak only Spanish... We are not focusing on the regular normal issues that newscasts in Spanish focus on, like immigration and that stuff. It is not our focus. We are talking to a different Latino. We are not talking to victims. We are talking to successful people eager to improve their lives.” [1]
48 stations from MundoFox's initial 50-station affiliate body have also committed to developing in-house news departments to provide locally produced Spanish language newscasts to the markets served by the stations, a small number of whom do not have a Spanish language news option on local television (excluding KWHY and WGEN-TV who already operate their own news departments). Affiliates without full-fledged newscasts are expected to produce two-minute local news capsules that will be aired during the network’s Noticias MundoFox national evening newscasts. [2]
On July 16, 2015 21st Century Fox announced that it had sold its stake in MundoFox to RCN, giving the firm full ownership. Fox International Channels president Herman Lopez stated that the company was "proud of having started MundoFox with RCN and are confident that they will realize all of the potential of the network." [3] That following July 28, "Noticias MundoFox" was cancelled and the entire staff was laid-off. [4]
Fox would re-enter the Spanish language TV news market in October 2024, when it began airing Fox Noticias—which, unlike Noticias MundoFox, is produced by Fox News—for one hour each weekday on the Fox Deportes sports cable channel. [5]
