Puerto Rican actor, comedian, and philanthropist, Raymond Arrieta has used his fame to aid people
suffering from cancer. He initiated a walk-a-thon in 2009 to raise funds and awareness for cancer patients, gathering sponsors and media attention and the support of many in the public. His efforts have inspired others to get involved in the cause.
In the 1950s, consumers made television the centerpiece of the home, fueling competition among broadcasters to create new products, new programming, new stations, and even new networks. Innovators, such as those behind the creation of independent Spanish-language stations and eventually the Spanish International Network (SIN), challenged established broadcasting companies by creating new programming in Spanish and catering to underserved audiences. Established in the early 1960s, SIN knit together independents and created new stations to serve a national audience. With a complex business and legal history, SIN eventually became Univision in the 1980s. In the decades after 1980, Spanish-language programing options grew with recognition of Latinx communities as powerful consumer groups and the advent of new broadcasting technologies such as cable and digital TV.
Description (Spanish)
El actor, comediante y filántropo puertorriqueño Raymond Arrieta ha utilizado su fama para ayudar a las personas que padecen cáncer. Inició un walk-a-thon (maratón de caminata) en 2009 para recaudar fondos y crear conciencia sobre los pacientes con cáncer, consiguiendo patrocinadores y captando la atención de los medios y el apoyo de un público diverso. Sus esfuerzos han servido de inspiración para que otros se sumen a la causa.
En la década de 1950, los consumidores hicieron de la televisión un componente central de sus hogares, fomentando la competencia entre las difusoras para crear nuevos productos, nueva programación, nuevas estaciones, e incluso nuevas redes. Los innovadores, como los creadores de los canales independientes de habla hispana y el Spanish International Network (SIN), desafiaron a las emisoras establecidas creando nuevos programas en español centradas en audiencias históricamente ignoradas. Establecido a principios de los sesenta, SIN unió a difusoras independentes y creó nuevas estaciones para responder a una audiencia nacional. Tras una compleja trayectoria empresarial y legal, SIN se convertiría en Univisión en la década de 1980. Durante las próximas décadas, las opciones de programación en español crecieron gracias al reconocimiento de la comunidad Latinx, como poderoso grupo de consumidores, y a la introducción de nuevas tecnologías de difusión, como el cable y la televisión digital.
