This strategic expansion aims to increase the digital footprint of WBD USH, significantly enhancing content offerings and advertising opportunities. “Más” focuses on delivering culturally relevant, engaging content that directly responds to the burgeoning market demand for programming that deeply resonates with US Hispanic viewers.

Embracing the theme ‘Más’, we are thrilled to roll out a set of FAST channels that reflect the rich diversity of the Hispanic community,” said David Tardio, Vice President of Advertising Sales at WBD USH. “This expansion into the FAST space is an ideal extension of our digital offerings, creating unparalleled opportunities for advertisers to connect with this vital audience through fresh, engaging, and accessible content.”

More Growth, More Engagement:

WBD USH demonstrated remarkable resilience and growth during the fourth quarter of 2023, achieving a +40% increase in primetime viewer impressions among adults 25 to 54, according to Nielsen[1]. During said period, the WBD USH networks collectively outpaced a decline observed across other aggregate Spanish-language cable channels. This growth trajectory has continued into the first quarter of 2024, as the WBD USH networks increased their aggregate share of Hispanic cable viewing by 2.8% among P25-54.

Moreover, WBD US Hispanic’s digital audience on Discovery en Español GO and Discovery Familia GO continues to grow at double-digit increases month over month, highlighting its expanding digital presence alongside its traditional media success.

The integration of CNN en Español into the WBD USH portfolio underscores its enriched network diversity. CNN en Español, along with Discovery en Español, Discovery Familia, and Hogar de HGTV, not only strengthens WBD USH content offerings, but also provides a robust and diverse platform for advertisers targeting the lucrative Hispanic market. This strategic inclusion has boosted the organization’s competitive edge, as evidenced by the unique viewership its collective network attracts: 15% to 19% of its audience has not watched traditional competitors in the 2023-24 season.

WBD USH networks audience is exclusive when compared to other Spanish-language cable networks, as 43% to 82% of WBD viewers did not watch the Spanish Language cable competition. This exclusivity highlights the unique appeal and trust that WBD USH commands among viewers. As WBD USH continues to expand, the company is committed to delivering ‘Más’—more engaging, more diverse, and more culturally rich programming, all designed to meet and exceed the expectations of its Hispanic audience, setting a new standard in entertainment.
