Univision anchor Jorge Ramos says his network’s friendly interview with Trump, “put in doubt the independence of our news department.”

"We cannot... offer Trump an open microphone to broadcast his falsehoods and conspiracy theories."

As @jayrosen_nyu so clearly states, it's "not the odds, but the stakes"...Media and #journo can convey context without partisan pandering, clearly citing facts on autocracy objectively...@Sulliview is right, the public deserves to be informed. #NewsLiteracy #democracy
