Univision announced yesterday that it will carry Bounce TV, the first broadcast network for American Americans.
The network reported that the deal would increase the coverage of Bounce TV to 68 percent of the U.S., and 80 percent in African American homes. It will be available in 24 of the top 25 markets.
“This unique agreement brings together the leading over-the-air broadcaster targeting the Hispanic viewer and the only over-the-air network targeting African-Americans,” said Jeffrey Wolf, Bounce TV Vice President of distribution.
