TelevisaUnivision Reinstates Daniel Coronell as News President, Skips María Martínez-Guzmán for Top Role

August 31, 2023 by Veronica Villafañe

EVP of News News María Martínez-Guzmán, named Leopoldo Gómez’s interim replacement, following his departure as President of Univision News in July, did not get the top leadership position at Televisa Univision’s news division.

Instead, the company is bringing back Daniel Coronell to take over the role.

Coronell, who worked at Univision News for 10 years, joining the team as VP of Network News, later promoted to President in 2016, was ousted in 2021 during a leadership restructuring that led to the appointment of Gómez, Televisa’s former head of news.

Rumors had been swirling for the past few days about Coronell’s return, which the company would not address.

No word yet on his start date.

Martínez-Guzmán, who has worked for Univision’s network news in various capacities for more than two decades, and had been filling in for Gómez, overseeing the company’s editorial and news production units, will continue as EVP of Univision News.

    Cuando pensamos que no podiamos caer mas bajo, descubrimos que el fondo, no tiene fondo.
    Somos un chiste, malo.
    Regresan las guerritas.
    Coronell empieza aca mañana.

    Premian a un mal jefe como DC … tipo que no aporta al crecimiento de la comunidad hispana en EEUU, esta más interesado en mantener a su lado a Felix de Bedout como siempre y que Univision sea su tribuna personal para atacar a los políticos colombianos que le caen mal … una error lo que hace TelevisaUnivision

    Y usted cree que usurpar el nombre de periodista Jorge Ramos para sacar a relucir sus frustraciones personales y profesionales es muy correcto?
    Por demás no están premiando a Coronell, toda vez que hacía dos años lo habían sacado; lo que hacien es corregir lo que a ellos después de este tiempo llegó a parecerles un error.
    Pero, parece que usted tiene una visión más clara y amplia, cierto?

    Increible. Un periodista que no sabe como entrevistar, vuelve a comandar a una cadena que el mismo se encargo con Itzakc Lee de destruirla. Bueno, no me sorprende que TedespistaUnificcion aun siga golpeandose con la misma piedra.

    Es obvio que Televisa no sabe lo que esta haciendo porque este hombre apoya muy duro al communismo y al partido de Petro en colombia. Muy mala decision de traer de nuevo a esta lepra.
