    This is huge extremely some of the affiliates like Telemundo 48 and Telemundo 40 and Telemundo Chicago and Houston Denver and Las vegas. Some of them launched Primera Edicion like Telemundo48 month ago. And Telemundo Las Vegasnd just started news operation.And Chicago huge for them because they only have 5 p.m. a 10 p.m. Monday-Friday they nearly buried By NBCU 2.6 like New York and Los Angeles getting this 5:30 p.m. my only concern is Telemundo Chicago,Houston,Dallas,Phoenix,Tucson,Denver,San Antonio their Midwest time when Noticiero Telemundo comes on 6:30 p.m. it 5:30 p.m. their those market how they air 5:30 p.m. while airing Noticiero Telemundo?
