KMEX-TV, "Univisión 34 Los Angeles", is the Univision-owned and operated station in Los Angeles and the network's flagship station; although Univision's production studios are located in Miami. Since KMEX went on the air, they opened the way for a cultural phenomenon in the U.S. to establish a Spanish language TV network.

Contents

KMEX-TV first began broadcasting on September 30, 1962 as an Spanish-language television station. Its newscast, Noticias 34, is the top rated newscast among Spanish-speaking viewers in Southern California and often draws more viewers than any of the English speaking newscasts (although that has changed recently as KVEA has improved the quality of their newscast). Currently, Noticias 34 has led the ratings in the 18-34 and 18-49 demographic at 6 p.m. for the last twelve years, a remarkable feat for any station. [1] Part of the reason for this is that the Latino population in Southern California is younger than the non-Latino population.

KMEX has long been known for its news coverage. News director Ruben Salazar was killed by the LAPD in 1970 when covering the National Chicano Moratorium March. Its news feature, El 15% de los Estados Unidos, which tells about the impact of Latinos on the United States, won a Peabody Award in 2006, and the station has won its share of Emmys and Golden Mics in the Los Angeles market.

KMEX has a fully-equipped Bell Jetranger ENG helicopter for its aerial coverage of breaking news [2] shown here with pilot/reporter Desiree Horton.
