From Buzzfeed:

While introducing Romney at the top of the broadcast, Salinas’s co-anchor, Jorge Ramos, noted that the Republican candidate had agreed to give the network 35 minutes, and that Obama had agreed to a full hour the next night. Ramos then invited the audience to welcome Romney to the stage — but the candidate didn’t materialize.

“It was a very awkward moment, believe me,” Salinas said.

Apparently, Romney took issue with the anchors beginning the broadcast that way, said Salinas, and he refused to go on stage until they re-taped the introduction. (One Republican present at the taping said Romney “threw a tantrum.”)

“Our president of news was talking to the Romney campaign and negotiating it,” Salinas said. “But at that point, you can’t really argue with that. The candidate is there, everyone is in their seats, the show must go on. There’s a limit to how much we can object to it.”

…

“Mitt Romney used the limited time he gave to Univision to evade the tough questions and reiterate positions he’s taken that would disproportionately impact Latinos,” said Gabriela Domenzain, accusing the Republican of championing middle class tax increases and a hardline immigration policy.

      yes i know he has the questions to “study” ahead of time, but he really is the  quite the spoiled petulant child

      •  @nancy a heitzeg as someone who got his way all of his life, he is easily agitated — he’s got a short circuit and it will be on full display at the debates.
