The following note was sent out:
ABC News has announced a key addition to its on-air ranks: legendary Spanish language news anchor María Elena Salinas has joined the network as a contributor.
Salinas joins ABC from CBS News, where she served as a network contributor reporting across platforms and covering the 2020 presidential election. She also anchored the award-winning documentary, Pandemia: Latinos in Crisis, which looked at how Covid has affected the Latinx community.
Prior to her stint at CBS, which began in July 2019, for more than 30 years, Salinas served as co-anchor of Univision’s evening newscast Noticiero Univision and, for 18 years, she was co-host of and correspondent for the network’s newsmagazine Aquí y Ahora.
Salinas is the first Latina to receive a lifetime achievement Emmy from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences—she spent 36 years in Spanish-language TV before leaving Univision at the end of 2017.
Her career began in 1981, where she served as a reporter, anchor and public affairs host for KMEX-TV, Univision’s affiliate in Los Angeles.
