In the last year, the earnings generated in the production of entertainment programs has increased by 70%, injecting US$250 million to the local economy and producing more jobs within the sector.

Now I do from the US what I used to do in Mexico expressed the star of Una Maid en Manhattan, one out of three Telemundo telenovelas being simultaneously produced in Miami.
