Watch Jack Myers' exclusive interview with David Lawenda, president of advertising sales and marketing for Univision Communications.

David explains why the sudden explosion of Hispanic media making Upfront pitches; how Upfront market economics are shaping up for Hispanic TV networks; why advertisers are shifting more money to Hispanic TV this year vs. the past couple years; and what's new and different at Univision this year.
