The Meds Research Center loves to praise its ideological fellow travelers at Fox News — though its refusal to divulge Fox’s right-wing bias is common. Here are some examples from 2024:

When Fox News started a Spanish-language channel, the MRC was way too excited about it. Jorge Bonilla — the only MRC employee who apparently speaks Spanish — gushed in an October 2024 post:
At long last, after decades of calls to launch Spanish-language content, it is finally happening: Fox News is launching original Spanish-language news programming, and a Spanish-language version of its website.
[…]To be clear, the traditional TV outlets experiencing declines are Univision and Telemundo. It’s been that way for decades. And where, you may ask yourself, are those audiences going?
[…]With the numbers being what they are, it seemed to be a no-brainer for Fox to launch Noticias. Rather than take a “build it and they will come” approach, Fox looked at historic data and determined “Because they came, we will build it.”
The launch is modest and scalable, starting with a Spanish-language version of the Fox News website and an afternoon newscast, hosted by Fox & Friends Weekend co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy, which will air on Fox Deportes and across the network’s digital properties as well as on its social media.
At no point does Bonilla admit that Fox Noticias will be a right-wing channel, though he takes several paragraphs to explain that MundoFox “doesn’t count” and is “absolutely non-canon” because it was “a full broadcast network with entertainment, soap operas, and a newscast that was indistinguishable from what you might see on Univision or Telemundo.”
Bonilla then explains he has skin in promoting an employer: “If you had a nickel for every time I ended one of my MRC Latino items with ‘the market cries out for an alternative”’ you’d have a lot of nickels. After years of asking Fox News to step up into the Spanish-language marketplace, they’ve finally done so.” Again, Bonilla fails to explain that has preferred Fox channel is a right-wing one.
Bonilla followed up in a February 2025 post:
For years, Spanish-language news media have been dominated by networks fully immersed in the immigration-industrial complex and acting as de facto clients of the Democratic Party. And for years, we called for an alternative. A recent interview on Fox Noticias demonstrates the importance of such an alternative.
Consider this fragment from Rachel Campos-Duffy’s interview of Kelvin Alverenga (Jocelyn Nungaray’s grandfather), wherein they discuss actress Selena Gomez’ reaction to the passage of the Laken Riley Act and other enforcement actions taken by President Donald Trump[.] […]
In the case of the horrendous murder of Jocelyn Nungaray at the hands of two alleged Tren de Aragua thugs, the networks had no choice but to report on the illegal alien status of the perpetrators. They also interviewed relatives of Nungaray, specifically her grandfather, but never went beyond the mourning phase and into discussions of related policy. This is a stark contrast from what these networks did with the aftermath of the Parkland school shooting, where they until very recently made the parents of one of the victims into regular guests any time they wanted to run a gun control segment, which is quite often.
Contrast that with the interview depicted above, and you will see why the left remains terrified of the emergence of alternatives to corporate Spanish-language media. Until Campos-Duffy had Alverenga on, no one had talked immigration policy with him. No one on corporate Spanish-language media will EVER talk immigration policy with Alverenga in the way they would gun control if sweet Jocelyn were the victim of a school shooting.
And Bonilla will never discuss school shootings the way he hypes the alleged crimes of illegal immigrants. He continued:
For one hour a day, Fox Noticias provides Spanish-speaking viewers with that much-needed alternative, with coverage and analysis kept hidden from viewers on Univision and Telemundo. This one interview demonstrated exactly why Fox Noticias was needed. Here’s hoping the daily newscast soon expands to a full grid.
Once more, he refuses to disclose the fact that Fox Noticias is a right-wing channel or that the “alternative;” he champions is a highly right-wing one.
