Univision crews were ordered to leave Donald Trumps campaign event at the Trump National Doral hotel in Florida on Friday. Univision said crews from both the network and local affiliate were asked to leave Trumps event, according to Dorals Local 10 News. The station was reportedly cleared to cover the event, but crew members were told upon arrival by someone who appeared to be an off-duty police officer that they were not allowed on the property, which is owned by Trump, according to Local 10 News.
The event at the Trump National Doral is being held near Univisions South Florida headquarters. Univision has battled publicly with Trump, the leading candidate for the GOP presidential nomination, since July when it pulled out of broadcasting the Trump-owned Miss USA beauty pageant because of Trumps disparaging comments about Mexican immigrants. Trump filed a $500 million lawsuit against Univision for backing out of the five-year contract to carry the Miss Universe francise. That lawsuit was the reason the Univision crews were turned away from the campaign rally, according to Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks.
Mr. Trump is suing Univision for $500 million and until that is resolved it is a conflict of interest, she said. Hours before the event, pro-immigration organizations and members of the South Florida Hispanic community showed up to protest. Fridays incident comes after Univision anchor Jorge Ramos was thrown out of another Trump event in August when he tried to ask the presidential hopeful a question. Ramos tweeted about Univision being booted out of Trumps Friday event, writing, Journalists from Univision were not allowed to cover a Donald Trump political event today in Doral, Florida.

Oh that’s where I heard it.
Thanks.
I couldn’t remember reading it in an article or anything.
Fuera pendejos!
Toenail fungus, si
It’s a win-win. Trump will get $500million and has an excuse to boot the racist ‘journalists’!
Yeah some kind of feminazi event
Send them over to Baja to cover a REAL event about Mexicans, instead of the insipid coverage of Trump.
Good idea. Let them cover the cesspool of violence in Mexico.
Nothing wrong with that, that’s what you are supposed to do in a lawsuit.
Univision started it when they let their politics interfere with a business agreement.
A CONTRACT IS A CONTRACT!
I bet a lot of Hispanics will vote Trump—They like real Leadership, they like men with balls, they like men who say what they mean and mean what they say. blacks will swarm for Hillary, but Latinos???? May split with a majority voting Trump. And if Trump picks Cruz as VP-—Moreso.
