Univision apologizes to Puerto Rico for ad slip-up
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}America's largest Spanish-language media company has angered Puerto Ricans after it accidentally ran an ad wishing the U.S. territory a happy independence day.
Univision ran the ad on Wednesday, July 25, the day that Puerto Rico celebrated its 60th anniversary of the creation of the commonwealth and its constitution following a 1952 referendum.
Univision issued an apology Thursday through Twitter, saying it ran the ad by mistake.
