Just two days after Univision conducted about 100 layoffs across stations nationwide, one more casualty can be added to the list.
Univision 23 anchor Gloria Ordaz was let go today.
Her dismissal surprised many insiders, who say she had been tapped to eventually become the Miami station’s primetime anchor, replacing 25-year veteran Alina Mayo Azze.
Ordaz was moved from weekends to the 11 pm anchor slot in January of 2016, after Mayo Azze negotiated working less hours and dropping the late night newscast to spend more time with her family.
Sources say Univision management had been negotiating Mayo Azze’s exit during the past couple of days, but in an unexpected last minute move, opted to remove Ordaz from its talent roster.
It seems that it was due a legal issue, a dangerous duty’s procedure mischief, not due the recent payroll cuts.
Btw, she kind of burnt it with the Miramar 51’s pals not long ago.
AmericaTeve again for her ?

Recuerda, con una mano se rasgan las vestiduras por la obsesiva inmigracion, por otra, aprovechan la vieja politica del BigStick, desde sus rediles en La Playa, Bogota, Coral Gables o Brickell o el DF o Coconut Grove o Key Biscayne.
Mi colega en el warehouse llamado Newsport. Florida es un non union welcome state, por eso es que estos networks residen en FLA. Florida dejo de ser un estado poderoso en cuanto a.los latino affairs desde hace muchas decadas.
Yo se.muy bien que la mafia colombiana no dejara que las uniones entren y haran lo posible para manipular a las mentes con esa vaina de que soll quieren el dinero. Just see where they cut photographers, just in the stations with no union.
With unions or without them univision will be chopping heads no matter what, but with a unionized shop the fight will be tougher.
Metan el.sindicato, que bastante se han aprovechado de la imagen de cesar chavez, caones… colegas, igual los van a correr hay o no hay union. Al menos con la union you will have more than the severance package
I’m going to miss Gloria! I also thought she’d be the next Alina Mayo Azze.
La despidieron porque no pertenecia al club de las culonas plasticas, requisito fundamental para entrar en esa factoria de noticias falsas.
