The Ann Arbor Cable Guide has full detail listings for Univision.
In Spanish.

        Ever notice language variations getting spread around
        by TV, with CNN, etc., these days, it seems like a variant
        or error gets spread around the world instantly. 

        Like a rash. Is there academic material on this?
        Some instinctual need to hurry up and spread linguistic change?
        e.g., in speling or grammer . .

TV and Language: The following amusing effect occurred when someone
forgot to put quotes around a title:

The Creation of the Universe was made possible by a grant from Texas
Instruments.
                -- Credits, "The Creation of the Universe" (A PBS
                scientific documentary)

I guess that ought to put an end to the creationism debates. :-)

   I`d post this en Espanol, but my Spanish is terrible. as is my French
and assorted other languages....

  I think it's great that someone is thinking gloabally instead of
me first. Spanish is probably one of the widest spoken languages
in the world. I wish that I knew more Spanish and could converse
fluently. I think it sounds a lot better than english.
