Telemundo is launching Radar2020, a new digital English-language news commentary show.
Gabriela Fresquez, brought on board to work on the show, is the host.
According to Telemundo, Radar2020 will “take a conversational and irreverent tone ” as it looks “at current events and break them down through various perspectives in the Latinx community.”
Grace González, who previously worked at Telemundo’s investigative unit, is the show’s executive producer.
Radar2020 kicks off Wednesday, October 7 at 5 pm ET on YouTube, where new, half-hour episodes will drop weekly.
Telemundo’s idea behind the format is to provide Latino millennials Latinx with information leading up to this year’s election, but the show will live beyond Election Day.
And… if you’re wondering about the date tied to the title, a company spokesperson says there will be a Radar2021 next year.

I have yet to know when they’ll use NBCUniverso as a platform for English-Language news just how Univision uses Fusion for UNews. There two-hour news program from 1 P.M. to 3 P.M. on Fusion. Just life Fusion they have some English and Spanish programming on there channel, just like Universo. I don’t get it why they don’t use that network so much they had a sister channel longer than Univision with Fusion. Telemundo/Universo since 1998 and Univision with Fusion since 2013. Something I just don’t get…

Don’t understand why Telemundo keep on doing these English things for more of the same leftist propaganda. Latin X?… Why they keep on pushing this nonbinary concept and other liberal ideas? Don’t people already have enough of that in some many other platforms?
On the other hand, Universo is being wasted. It needs some revamping. It’s sad, but there’s no clear vision or goal there.
