According to the company, under his leadership, UCI has transformed into a multimedia company, expanding its reach with 16 broadcast, cable and digital networks; 61 television stations and 67 radio stations.

    Que tal las pintas.
    Saban le renueva el cacao a Falco.
    Y ahora que sumerce ?
    Azcarraga pronto a sus piones Lee y este al Coronell ?
    No, que mermelada , que bellecitas tan juemadres.
    Por eso estamos como estamos.
    El Cartel de los re-sapos pues.
