Guerra out, Escobar in at Telemundo

November 19, 2009 by Veronica Villafañe

 

Johanna Guerra, Sr VP of Network News at Telemundo has left the company. She had been with the company in supervisory capacities since 2002. She was previously Executive Producer for Al Rojo Vivo.

Here’s a portion of the email Joanna sent to Noticiero Telemundo and Al Rojo Vivo staff announcing her resignation, shortly after 7 pm yesterday:

“Standing before you today to tell you of my decision to leave the company was not an easy one. But I have been comforted by your kind words and gestures. I want to reassure you that I came to this decision after weighing my career and family considerations. And I am excited about what the future holds for me in that aspect.

 

I want to thank you all, once again, for the many years of growth that you have been part of. As I said earlier, there are many more successes for you to accomplish. Stay focused!”

 

Meanwhile, Ramón Escobar, who last held the title of Sr VP of Network Entertainment at Telemundo, is back… as a full time consultant to “work with us on several fronts,” says a network spokesman. “In particular, he has been focusing on ARV for the last couple of weeks.”

Could his return have anything to do with her departure?

    Debiera ponerlo en estos terminos…..: "He fracasado. Mi titulo NO refleja lo que realmente se ve en el aire. Telemundo Noticias tiene errores desde donde se lo vea. Es aburrido y poco interesante. Y si fuese el unico noticiario en Espaniol, TAMPOCO la gente lo veria.
    La diferencia con los americanos NO es la tecnologia. Es el conocimiento. Y en nuestro MEDIO HISPANO, los que saben estan buscando oportunidades, y los que NO, estamos ocupando importantes puestos"
