Schwarzenegger Univision Ads Questioned

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's special-election campaign bought nearly $1 million in advertising time from Univision, a Spanish-language TV network whose chairman is his biggest single donor, a newspaper reported Saturday.


The campaign bought no time from rival network Telemundo, which did not donate to the campaign, according to campaign finance reports cited by the Los Angeles Times.


Univision's A. Jerrold Perenchio has contributed $4.8 million to Schwarzenegger campaign committees since 2002, including $1.5 million on Oct. 4, according to the reports.


In the four weeks that ended Oct. 22, the governor's campaign to support initiatives on the Nov. 8 special election ballot spent $983,487 at Univision stations.
