Quevedo out at KMEX-34

December 30, 2013 by Veronica Villafañe

Teresa Quevedo smallAs of today, Teresa Quevedo is no longer working for KMEX-34. She had been anchoring at Univision’s O&O in Los Angeles for more than 16 years.

She sent out a tweet to her followers earlier in the day.

Apparently, she didn’t get a chance to say good-bye on the air.  A follower suggested the station should have done a video tribute of her career, to which she replied she would welcome it.

A company spokesperson confirmed Teresa’s departure, but would not comment on any replacements.  Her bio has already been removed from the company’s website.

As of today I not longer work for Univisión. I will miss everybody. My Univisión family.

Teresa has been 6 and 11 pm weekday anchor at KMEX since 1997.  In 2011, the station took her off the 11 pm anchor desk and replaced her with Felicidad Aveleyra, a much younger anchor and former actress from Televisa Mexico.  Teresa kept her seat at 6 pm and was sent out to do reporting for the 11 pm.

Teresa is well-known in the Los Angeles Spanish-language market, where she has worked for over 22 years.  Before her most recent stint at KMEX, she was weekday anchor at Telemundo’s KVEA-52 in Los Angeles for 4 years.  But she also previously worked at KMEX as an anchor from 1991 to 1993.  Before that, she was an anchor for KUVN-23 Univision in Dallas.

    I want to make you guys clear that Teresa Quevedo wasn’t replaced by Felicidad Aveleyra. Leon Krauza and Felicidad Aveleyra came to Univision 34 to replace to anchors that got transferred from Univision 34. Do a good research before posting misinformation. I have pics from the 2 former anchors that Leon Krauze and Felicidad replaced. Teresa wasn’t replaced by Felicidad. Felicidad has more than 2 years working there and she came to replace a former anchor that went somewhere else.
