Mexico City - Last weekend, the Univision-owned Fusion Media Group announced that it had launched the Fusion cable network in Mexico, marking the first international market expansion of the network.
Through an agreement with the Mexico City-based telecom company Izzi Telecom, viewers will be able to watch the network on channel 234, or they can continue to consume Fusion news and lifestyle content via Izzi's VOD service, which launched earlier this year.
In addition to lifestyle and comedy, the Mexican version of Fusion's linear channel will include a series of news specials from Jorge Ramos, including his recent film Hate Rising, the network's investigative series The Naked Truth, Diego Luna's Back Home series, and many of the network's original documentaries and docu-series, along with special reports on cultural topics including fashion, college life, sex, tech, and the environment.
