He is a great professional and very good at explaining.” “Wow what a shame.” “For me it was the best thing about that program, seeing how he explains the weather I learned a lot from him.” “It can’t be.”

For the vast majority, the departure of the head of meteorology was a bad decision: “I don’t understand how the executives think, tremendous professional and a great loss for the show and company @univision @despiertamerica.” “I imagined it. What a pity Albert Martínez is excellent as a meteorologist, but that’s the way it is @univision has no respect for Latino professionals.»

But the rejection of the news was greater: “@univision only knows about respect for Mexicans. They take out great professionals like in this case, however, they re-enlist and even look for space for those who decide to leave and they place them on @despiertamerica, for that and more I don’t even watch this program anymore.” “@univision always does the same thing, they use them and discard them as if they were rubbish.”
