Jorge Ramos Totally Explained

Everything about Jorge Ramos totally explained

Jorge Ramos (born March 16, 1958) is a Mexican anchor of Noticiero Univision, a Spanish-only television network.
   Ramos joined Univision in 1985. He has interviewed multiple world leaders including Fidel Castro, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Hugo Chávez and many others.
   Ramos started working at a radio station in Mexico City. However, he left his country (Mexico) when the biggest Mexican television network censored a report he'd made. Looking for a better job and a better life, he decided to immigrate to the United States.
   He came to the United States with a student visa in 1983. The first job he took was waiting tables. Finally, in 1984, he received the opportunity to join an affiliate of Univision in Los Angeles. Two years later, he became the morning host for the show "Mundo Latino".
   He became one of the youngest national anchormen in the history of American television at the age of 28, in November 1986. Since this happened, he's been called the "voice of the voiceless" for other immigrants such as himself.
   Ramos attended the Ibero-American University in México City where he majored in Communication. He then received his Master's degree in International Studies from the University of Miami.
   He works alongside Univision colleagues María Elena Salinas and Enrique Gratas.
   He is currently dating mexican actress Ana De La Reguera.
   On September 9, 2007, Ramos as a moderator to a democratic presidential debate on the Spanish-language television network Univision, cut off and refused to allow Governor Bill Richardson to speak Spanish. Richardson expressed his disagreement and replied: "And I do want to say at this point that I was under the impression that in this debate Spanish was going to be permitted because I've always supported Univision all my career, but I'm disappointed today that 43 million Latinos in this country, for them not to hear one of their own speak Spanish -- (applause) -- is unfortunate," Richardson said. "In other words, Univision has promoted English only in this debate." Ramos by imposing the "English only" debate on a Spanish-language TV network was seen as being very rude, offensive and disrespectful to the entire Hispanic community. Ramos has never apologized.
   On February 21, 2008, he represented Univision in a Democratic debate between Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama on the University of Texas at Austin campus.
   The February 23, 2008 telecast of "Saturday Night Live" featured Will Forte impersonating Jorge Ramos in a Hillary Clinton/Barack Obama debate sketch.
