CSUF Comm Week 2026

Bringing the newsroom to Cal State Fullerton, Telemundo 52 panelists will recount their academic and professional journey, navigating the newsroom as bilingual and Hispanic media professionals. Gain insight from notable professionals in the field, including eight-time award-winning news anchor Alejandra Ortiz, alongside four-time award-winning news producer Genesis Samayoa-Hildago, and the Vice President of News at Telemundo 52 Los Angeles, Mike Gaytán. 
Following the conversation, the hosts will open the floor for audience members to ask these professionals further questions about their experiences and ask for advice on stepping into the industry.  This event is open to all community members and will offer complimentary zero-sugar energy drinks thanks to our sponsor, El Jefe, so join us for a memorable event and learn what it takes to make notable contributions in a high-paced industry. 


Hosted by NAHJ and Professor Elise Assaf
