One of the most followed news sources for the US Spanish-speaking community has found an important way of connecting to its target with digital and mobile platforms as well as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.In 2016, Univision News registered a yearly average audience increase of 46% for digital and mobile platforms, while recording a 121% growth on Facebook, 172% on Twitter and 56% on YouTube.
