Univision contra Trump

Univision won't telecast Miss Universe on July 12. The Spanish-language TV network has cut ties with the pageant over remarks from pageant co-owner Donald Trump about Mexican immigrants. "When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best," said Trump, who is running for president. "They're bringing drugs. . . . They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people." Trump tweets that Univision wants to back out of its contract "because I exposed the terrible trade deals that the U.S. makes with Mexico."
