What Went Down At The Univision Democratic Debate

As we come to a close here, I wanted to put in perspective what a large audience Democrats are getting on Univision. According to a 2013 Pew Research Center report, Univision has more viewers than the Fox network and nearly the same number as ABC. Moreover, Univision tops all of the English-speaking networks in terms of viewers ages 18 to 49.

Is Puerto Rico a state or a country? It’s a facetious question, since it’s neither, but the issue is important economically. The island is in the midst of a debt crisis, because it owes about $70 billion. To put that in perspective: that’s only 70 percent of Puerto Rico’s GDP, which is very high compared to other U.S. states but very low compared to other countries.
