Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos travels to one of the most exciting places in the Caribbean: Puerto Rico. Identified as an unincorporated territory of the United States, Jorge explores the food, music, and culture the bustling island has to offer – from learning how to skateboard in the notorious La Perla and zip lining 900 feet high above the Puerto Rican rain forests to hearing about the island’s economic and political situation from the younger generation. Puerto Rico has undergone a dramatic population shift over the past several years – there are now over a million more Puerto Ricans on the United States’ mainland than the island of Puerto Rico itself, according to Pew Research Center.

Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos goes inside one of the most secretive agencies in the U.S. government to explore how the intelligence agency is recruiting the next generation of agents and adapting in a post-Snowden era. “Agents of Change: An AMERICA Special” will air Tuesday, June 3 at 10:00 p.m., ET on Fusion.

In an exclusive interview, Ramos talks to CIA Director John Brennan and Ron Patrick, who oversees the agency’s recruitment, about the mission and reputation of the CIA post-Snowden.

To get a sense of what life is like in the CIA, Ramos talks to a group of young CIA analysts as well as Justin Jackson, the former Deputy Director for the National Clandestine Service and a 30-year CIA veteran, and Director of the CIA’s Center for Mission Diversity Carmen Middleton who explains how hiring new faces with different opinions actually benefits the organization.

Jorge Ramos is the most-watched Spanish-language broadcaster in the U.S. Last year he ventured into the English-language media world for the first time with his Fusion news-magazine “AMERICA with Jorge Ramos.”
New York magazine spent 167 minutes with Ramos on a day where he was taping segments for his Fusion program “AMERICA” and anchoring Univision’s evening newscast “Noticiero Univision.” The reporter Reid Cherlin notes – “Thirty years later, Ramos is the undisputed face of Spanish-language broadcasting, his career arc coinciding with a boom in the sector.”
On his role as a journalist and leader in the Latino community Ramos told Cherlin: “the Latino community expects from us much more than just news. They expect from us leadership. And they expect from us somehow to represent them.”
When the evening’s newscast ends at seven, after a drug-trafficking story and the nightly countdown to the World Cup, Ramos will cheerily slip into the South Florida heat with his jacket over his arm. But it has been a busy day: He’s also taped an installment of America, a newsmagazine he hosts on Fusion, the English-language network that Univision launched in October in partnership with ABC. At the moment, the rapid growth of Latinos in this country is fueled not by immigrants but by the American-born children of immigrants. Univision executives realized that this younger group is more comfortable getting its news in English, and they launched Fusion as a direct response to the trend. (The network recently announced plans to target non-Latino millennials, too.)
… With Fusion, Ramos hopes his clout will grow beyond the Latino community. “What I really like is that for the first time, I don’t need translation,” he says. “And without translation, there’s an immediate impact. And definitely the language of power is English.” He mentions an interview with Senator Patty Murray of Washington earlier in the day about pregnant immigrants being held in detention centers by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “Even before we aired the story, ICE sent us an email rectifying the information that we were going to broadcast,” he says. “Had we done the same thing in Spanish, we wouldn’t have gotten any reaction.”
Jorge Ramos co-hosted “The View" on ABC today to promote his English-language newsmagazine on FUSION, “AMERICA with Jorge Ramos,” which debuts in its new timeslot tomorrow, Tuesday March 18 at 10:00 p.m.
Ramos talked with the ladies about his very modern family including his relationship with Chiquinquira Delgado, who hosts the Spanish-language version of “Dancing with the Stars” – “Mira Quien Baila,” and their blended family. Chiqui has two daughters ages 21 and 3 while Jorge has a son Nicolas, 15, and daughter Paola, 26.
2162162216When asked how they keep up with the 3 year-old Ramos said “you have to stay with a lot of energy and optimism… we gotta stay young.” “I do yoga, tennis and I still play football every single Saturday morning, which by the way is soccer – football in espanol,” he told Barbara Walters.

Jorge Ramos, who anchors Fusion’s “AMERICA with Jorge Ramos" as well as "Noticiero Univision” and “Al Punto” on Univision,was ranked among the top stars in the Latino community along with his Univision News colleague Teresa Rodriguez (co-anchor of “Aqui y Ahora”).
There are more than 50 million Latinos in the U.S., according to the latest census. That’s 16 percent of the population, and by 2018, one in five Americans will be of Hispanic descent.
Marketers increasingly are keen to connect to this growing demographic that not only is young – already Latinos account for one in four people under age 18 – but also responsible for more than $1 trillion in spending power. So who are the biggest stars in the Latino community?“
