Bienvenidos a Amexica. Oprima el numero dos para Ingles.

[Ajnin]

Great, There's nothing like aiding and abetting the detioration of American civialization than promoting a freakin' primetime foreign language.

[The Worthless Miracle]

George Lopez show?

While being initially disgust, I can't blame them too much.

They're not in the game to preserve our culture (as we've found out over the last 40 years) they're out to make a profit and atract more viewers.

Optional subtitles and shows being dubbed on SAP don't really bother me much.

A B C eeing you later along with all the other network television outlets.

My grade-school-aged nephew got one of those 'your child had a good day' forms. SPANISH, not English, was the primary language on the form. The English translation was on the bottom half.

Since we're in California, and he's attending a public school, I was more disgusted than surprised.

I missed the memo when Spanish became the dominate mandated language.

Everyone:

Please don't forget to insert the word "illegal" in your comments. Remember, it is only the "illegal" ones we are talking about.

This just shows they are getting their ass kicked by Univision, as well as Fox.

[newzjunkey]

They're not in the game to preserve our culture (as we've found out over the last 40 years) they're out to make a profit and atract more viewers.

That aspect of capitalism, devoid of a sense of civic duty, along with enforced "multiculturalism" and self-segregating ghettos dominating urban areas thus increasingly influencing mass media is exactly why we'll LOSE our culture.

Didn't Pat issue a warning at the 1992 GOP convention?

[kenth]

I thought most programs were offered in Spanish on SAP anyway.

[America First Libertarian]

and so it begins

[BurbankKarl]

Cheaper than buying Telemundo like NBC did. They will add in the Spanish language watchers and claim people are actually watching their shows.

Hollywood is circling the drain if you ask me....declining viewership, declining movie ticket sales, declining music sales...

[splint]

"We the people of Rockridge.....badges?..we dont need no stinkin badges."

[lndrvr1972]

Look I have been to Mexico and South America they expect you to speak Spanish or to try to. I never saw an English speaking TV show. Just my 2 cents worth.

[claptrap]

the undocumented workers are watching stuff us documented workers wont watch! this is going to creep into every nook and cranny of america except places that are currently washed out!

[taxesareforever]

No one who speaks English is watching so might as well try some foreign language. I suggest French.

[devolve]

[tina07]

it's actually pretty funny

[patriciaruth]

The top 10 television shows in Los Angeles are in Spanish.

Welcome to reality, all you English only liberals.

Puedo hablar Espanol.
