Trump Sues Univision for $500 Million 

By Tom Huddleston, Jr., Jun. 30, 2015, Fortune

Trump sued Univision for $500 million for canceling the airing of Miss USA following Trump’s derogatory remarks about Mexicans.

Billionaire real estate mogul and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is suing Univision for more than $500 million in New York Supreme Court after the Spanish-language network cancelled plans to air the July 12 Miss USA pageant, according to Variety.

Trump declared his candidacy for president last week with a press conference in which he derided President Barack Obama and made several disparaging comments about Mexican immigrants. Since then, various media outlets have distanced themselves from Trump. Those outlets include his former employer, Comcast’s CMCSA 3.51% NBCUniversal, which canceled plansto air Miss USA and Miss Universe — the network’s joint venture with Trump — while also opting not to invite Trump back for another season of his reality show The Celebrity Appearance.
