LOS ANGELES, Feb. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Stop the Dis(information) Campaign Focuses on the 2024 Elections;

Kicks off on Wednesday, February 14 with a Town Hall Special featuring

U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff

Among the Subjects Discussed, Schiff Spoke to Immigration Reform, saying that 'Expanding Detention Centers and shutting down the Border is just not something that I think a lot of Latino Voters would get behind…We had that during the Trump Administration, and it didn't work.'

Special Airs on LATV at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT; Available on digital platforms

LATV App and on CALONews.com on Thursday, February 15

LATV and the Latino Media Collaborative's CALÓ News Partnership includes Distribution of Latino-Created News and Editorial Across both Media Networks

LATV (Latino Alternative Television), Latino Media Collaborative's (LMC) CALÓ News, and Comedian/Actor Al Madrigal have joined forces to create the "Stop the Dis(information)" campaign surrounding the 2024 U.S. elections. The media and event partnership will include multimedia segments, events, and specials focused on the 2024 election, addressing the importance of the 18+ GenZ and Millennial audience that LATV serves. Madrigal will serve as Executive Producer for the specials that will air on LATV. CALÓ News with LATV will produce the events in coordination with community change organizations. The first will be a Town Hall with Senatorial Candidate and U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff airing on LATV on February 14 at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, and on digital platforms CALONews.com, and the LATV app on February 15.

In the one-hour Town Hall, Schiff addressed topics including a renter's credit, DACA, LGBTQ+ rights, equality in education and healthcare, and internet reform and regulation. The subject of immigration reform was top of mind with the diverse in-person Town Hall audience.

"I want to go to the Senate and fight to do away with the filibuster and work with Alex Padilla to finally get a comprehensive immigration reform passed," Schiff said. "We need comprehensive reform. But I think we're going to have to do this ourselves because there just isn't the will on the other side of the aisle. Expanding detention centers and shutting down the border is just not something that I think a lot of Latino voters would get behind at all. We had that during the Trump administration, and it didn't work."

The Schiff Town Hall is the kickoff event in the "Stop the Dis(information)" campaign between Hispanic-owned media companies LATV and LMC's CALÓ News. The media partnership will bring high-quality Latino journalism in English to LATV's multiple platforms, including engaging news and editorial video content across both company's media platforms. The news and information partnership will see content created and shared between CALÓ and LATV for air on its linear channel, streaming app, and the CALÓ News site.

"Before we can change reality for the better, we must first agree on what reality is. That's where 'Stop the Dis' comes in," said Madrigal. "I couldn't be prouder to join this effort to discuss the most pressing issue facing the Latino community, the spread of disinformation amongst Latino voters. My hope is that we rise with one voice to identify and squash anyone intentionally sowing confusion in our community."

"What better way for candidates to get their message to Latinos than through Latino-owned media like LATV?" said Andres Palencia, CEO of LATV. "We are proud to be able to provide such a platform in partnership with CALÓ News." "Our audience is the change-maker generation," added Bruno Seros-Ulloa, President of LATV. "This is part of our commitment to being an alternative voice for Latinos, and 'Stop the Dis' allows us to present the issues in our language and style."

"CALÓ reporters and a team of journalists from USC/Annenberg are researching and documenting cases of disinformation targeting our communities. We will report on ways to identify and combat disinformation," said Martin Albornoz, General Manager, CALÓ News. "We want to give our audience the tools to beat this new form of propaganda." Arturo Carmona, President of the Latino Media Collaborative (LMC), said, "Leveraging the strong partnership we have built at LMC, we are excited to collaborate with LATV and Al Madrigal on a new initiative to amplify anti-disinformation reporting and messaging throughout California and the Southwest."

The "Stop the Dis" town hall Executive Producers are Al Madrigal, Jason Ross, Flavio Morales, Martin Albornoz for CALÓ News, Andres Palencia and Bruno Seros-Ulloa for LATV.
