José E. Ramos, president of WAPA TV
José E. Ramos, president of WAPA TV, at the 2012 Upfront, which took place at the Puerto Rico Convention Center, spoke with PRODU about the experience of producing Idol Puerto Rico, as well as the changes that have come about as a result of the new administration.The experience with Idol Puerto Rico has been important for WAPA because of the partnership with the creators of Idol (FremantleMedia). Its the first time WAPA co-produces a show with its creators, and they brought along an expertise that was extraordinary for us, said Ramos.The executive pointed out the high standards of the Idol producers helped raise the production bar of WAPA TV, and he is confident this contribution will remain with the channel for years to come.In regards to the changes that resulted from the incorporation of the new administration (InterMedia Partners), Ramos said it has been special since the previous owners were highly focused on technology. He says the fact that WAPA is at the technological forefront allowed InterMedia to switch their focus to programming.They brought two important elements: a winning mentality and the money to achieve our goals. This competitive philosophy has brought us to where we are now, added Ramos.
