NEW FUSION NETWORK OFFERS VALUABLE OPPORTUNITY TO EDUCATE YOUNG HISPANICS AND ALL MILLENIALS ON IMMIGRATION <\/strong><\/p>\n

New English-language television network to go live Monday, October 28<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tomorrow\u2019s launch of the long-planned, Miami-based Fusion television network presents a valuable opportunity to offer an accurate education on U.S. immigration to its announced targeted audience.
\nWe hope that opportunity is not wasted. <\/p>\n

Fusion,<\/a> a joint ABC News-Univision effort aimed at English-speaking Latinos and millenials will feature Univision\u2019s long-time news anchor Jorge Ramos hosting \u201cAmerica with Jorge Ramos\u201d<\/a> as its flagship program along with what is described as news, sports, humor and satire.<\/p>\n

According to various reports from a gushing media force<\/a>, Univision News president and Fusion CEO Isaac Lee has called on staff to “move beyond the conventional.” Of the planned programming, he says there will be “growing pains,” and that “not everybody will get it and that’s sort of the point.” <\/p>\n

The planned programming will be aimed at the young people who don\u2019t normally watch much news says Lee.<\/p>\n

Fusion will share new studio space with Spanish-language parent Univision News in suburban Miami. This writer has traveled to the cavernous Univision television complex and despite the fact that it was somewhat of a \u201cD.A. King on trial\u201d format, actually enjoyed the resulting television interview<\/a> with Jorge Ramos and am happy to be on a first-name basis with a man who seems like a truly \u201cnice guy\u201d with a great staff.<\/p>\n

With its stated goal of \u201cbreaking barriers,\u201d here\u2019s hoping that management, Ramos and the production staff will not resort to a default \u201clegalization and unlimited immigration is the answer\u201d to America\u2019s raging immigration crisis. One barrier that should be broken is an honest presentation of the facts on immigration to the targeted young audience which is usually bombarded with the concept that having borders and immigration laws is somehow un-American and mean-spirited.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping that someone informs Fusion viewers that with nearly double the number of real, legal immigrants as nation number two, it is Mexico that sends the most legal immigrants to the USA. Every year. What is nation number two? It\u2019s communist China.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping that no matter how unconventionally it is presented, young viewers learn that at more than one million souls each year, the United States brings in more legal immigration than any nation in the world. And that despite too-common assimilation evasion, unemployment, shrinking job prospects and sinking wages, a well-funded coalition of self-serving interests is constantly pushing for a doubling of immigration levels. And legalizing what is presented as \u201celeven million\u201d victims of borders who scoff at any laws from which they don\u2019t benefit.<\/p>\n

Somebody should be allowed to inform the young viewers that employment is directly related to \u201cimmigration.\u201d And that on employment recovery, the Wall St. Journal reported that \u201ceven if the rate of hiring doubled, it would take more than three years to get employment back to its prerecession level, after adjusting for (non-amnesty) population growth, according to estimates from the Brookings Institution\u2019s Hamilton Project.\u201d (WSJ June 24, 2013) <\/p>\n

Whether is with humor, satire or hard news, the millennial viewers should be repeated told of the \u201cone-time\u201d legalization of illegal aliens of 1986<\/a> that served to create the current expectation of recurring amnesties and a customized path to American citizenship.<\/p>\n

Jorge Ramos makes no secret of the fact that despite his journalism credentials, he is an unapologetic and vocal advocate for another legalization for illegal aliens. On the Fusion amnesty agenda, he has promised action. \u201cWe\u2019re going to come out on Oct. 28th, and if the House doesn\u2019t approve immigration reform by then, then there\u2019s going to be a new, very loud voice in Fusion, talking about immigration every single night until immigration reform passes,\u201d Ramos promised in August. <\/p>\n

Ramos added that the English-language Fusion is prepared to \u201cown\u201d the immigration story upon October\u2019s launch. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be ours from the first hour,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s no question about it.\u201d <\/p>\n

Well, here it is, Fusion launch and the Republican-controlled House is not willing to risk the re-election troubles another amnesty would surely produce.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping there is at least a nod toward fairness and balance in the new network\u2019s immigration agenda with the inclusion of at least one in-house or semi-regular fact-savvy, pro-enforcement conservative voice. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping somebody informs the Fusion watchers that nearly half the illegal aliens in the U.S. did not come here illegally. They overstayed temporary visas. That is how most of the 9\/11 terrorists were able to remain here. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping that it is regularly pointed out that it is a base insult to the tradition of American immigration to allow illegal aliens to be labeled \u201cimmigrants.\u201d
\nRamos notes that for Hispanics, immigration is \u201cvery emotional.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping that at least one pro-enforcement American gets to reply to Ramos, on camera: \u201cYes. It is for all Americans, Jorge.\u201d <\/p>\n

It is “sort of the point” and everybody “will get it.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
