Brown out as Univision Sports president

Posted on 07 March 2012. Tags: ,

Alexander “Sandy” Brown, the President of Univision Sports, is stepping down from the position after just one year with the company. No details are available on his departure, other than he will remain as an adviser.

Univision is set to launch its cable sports network in April of this year.

Last October, rival Telemundo stunned everyone when they got the exclusive Spanish-language rights for the 2018 World Cup in Russia and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
