4 July 2006
Broadcasting industry alert provided by U.S. Equity News. Univision Online, Inc., a subsidiary of Univision Communications Inc. (NYSE:UVN), announced recently that it has won 13 Awards in the 51st Annual 2006 Promax/BDA Awards competition, honoring the best in Marketing, Promotions and Design in electronic media. This overwhelming victory is particularly impressive because this year marks the first time that Univision Online entered to compete against the industry's best of the best. SIRIUS Satellite Radio (Nasdaq: SIRI) and Variety, the "show business bible," recently announced the launch of a radio news bureau, based in Variety's Los Angeles offices, that will provide the latest in entertainment news to SIRIUS' national radio audience multiple times each hour of every day. Launching this fall, Variety Radio News will broadcast regular reports on SIRIUS' Los Angeles channel 150.
