TelevisaUnivision is using an ad campaign to urge YouTube TV parent Google to “Do the Right Thing” and reverse its plans to move Univision from its main bundle to an added price plan. “Google’s planned removal of Univision from YouTube TV on September 30 is an unacceptable threat to millions of Hispanic households who rely on our programming for trusted news, vital information, and cultural connection,” said Daniel Alegre, CEO of TelevisaUnivision. “Stripping access to Univision at such a critical time shows a blatant disregard for the communities we serve.” Ads objecting to the move are appearing in national publications as well as in areas with large Hispanic populations.

Amazon has agreed to pay $2.5 billion to settle a lawsuit from the FTC that accused the company of a deceptive subscription process, tricking consumers into signing up for Prime subscriptions, when some just wanted to sign up for Prime Video, then making it difficult to cancel. Eligible users can receive up to $51. The settlement – reached three days into trial – “allows us to move forward and focus on innovating for customers,” said an Amazon spokesperson. “We work incredibly hard to make it clear and simple for customers to both sign up or cancel their Prime membership, and to offer substantial value for our many millions of loyal Prime members around the world.”
