| "Consider
this tantalizing fact: more New Yorkers get their news in
Spanish from Jorge Ramos on "Noticiero Univision" than in
English from Dan Rather on "The CBS Evening News."
Louis Nevaer, Pacific News Service,
October 13, 2004
"Univision's
Ramos is Rather-Brokaw-Jennings rolled into one, and a prolific author as well. His sixth
nonfiction book: "The Latino Wave," about how Latinos will select the next
president."
Newsday, January 20, 2004
One of "The Ten Most Admired Latinos"
Latino Leaders magazine. January 31, 2003
"One of this country's highest rated network news
anchors".
Nightline (ABC) March 2, 2001
"Star newscaster of Hispanic TV. Hispanic TV's No 1
correspondent and key to a huge voting bloc."
The Wall Street Journal
"The anchor for Univision's evening news, Jorge
Ramos, he's actually bigger than Peter Jennings, Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw -- at least in
Miami, Los Angeles and Houston, where his newscast consistently beats out all the other
networks for the top ratings."
The Miami Herald
About "The Latino Wave"
"All Americans ought to read this book -- or at least know what
it says. It is about the future of the United States."
Anthony Day, Los Angeles Times
"If you are interested about politics, this is a very importanto
book to read."
Harry Smith, CBS-The Early Show
"It's a terrific read. It's very provocative."
Lou Dobbs, CNN
About "No
Borders"
"An insightful memoir", Booklist
"Ramos writes from the vantage point of a community
that, while remaining almost invisible to the mainstream media, is reshaping U.S. culture
and politics."
Juliet Wittman, Washington Post Book World
"Informative, up to date and intelligent."
Gregg Barrios, San Antonio Express-News
"A thoughtful and often compelling biography."
Mike McDaniel, Houston Chronicle
"A page-turner."
Jeanne Jakle, San Antonio Express-News
"Ramos reveals a side of himself that his fans and
many colleagues don't know...his childhood, his family, his first love, and his dreams
-even those that where shattered."
Verónica Villafañe, San Jose Mercury News.
"Written with honesty, sensibility, vulnerability
and humor, No Borders is a magnificently profound and interesting book."
Joel Morales, El Hispano News
About "The Other Face of America"
"Ramos's understanding of immigration issues runs
deep. He has lived the immigrant story himself, and as he grapples with weighty,
controversial issues, he peels back layers of his own experience."
Miami Herald.
"Entertaining, informative and well done."
Publishers Weekly
"Accept a multicultural society and embrace
diversity, says Ramos, or beat your head against the wall. Truer words were never spoken
even if they are still fighting words for too many."
Kirkus Reviews
"In The Other Face of America, Jorge Ramos details
the contribution of modern-day Latino immigrants, colorfully capturing their plights and
passions as they make their way in twenty-first-century America."
