Univision announces Silva’s network anchor job

Posted on 03 June 2011. Tags: , ,

Univision today officially announced that Pamela Silva Conde will be network co-anchor of “Primer Impacto,” effective July 5. She’ll be taking over for Ilia Calderón, who in March was named anchor of “Noticiero Univision Edición Nocturna.”

News that the wife of Univision Networks President César Conde was named “Primer Impacto” anchor first broke yesterday. An internal memo was sent out to staff this morning and a press release followed.

    Of course with her husband as the president of the network of course she is going to get a nice promotion to one of the better news programs. Isn’t this a conflict of interest in a company, you can’t work under your husband or a relative’s order. I guess the big Univision bosses are opting to ignore this small detail. Don’t the employees complain about that….oh yeah they would get fired.
