Controversy
Fallout from Donald Trump's remarks on Mexican immigrants
On June 25, 2015, Univision Communications president and CEO Randy Falco announced that the company would sever its business ties with Miss Universe Organization co-owner Donald Trump, following comments regarding Mexican immigrants that were made by Trump during his speech announcing his candidacy for the Republican Party nomination for President of the United States on June 16, in which Trump stated that Mexicans immigrating into the U.S. were responsible for importing drugs, and bringing crime and rapists into the country, and called for the building of a wall along the Mexico–United States border.[13][14][15]
On June 29, NBCUniversal, which owns the 50% stake in the Miss Universe Organization not owned by Donald Trump, confirmed it was terminating its business ties with Trump – saying in a statement that "respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values" – and would no longer air the Miss Universe Organization pageants.[16] (Miss Teen USA has not aired on conventional television since the 2007 pageant, as it was not included in NBC's renewed television contract with the Miss Universe Organization for uncited reasons).
On July 1, Farouk Systems Inc. withdrew their sponsorship with the Miss Universe Organization due to Trump's statements.[17]
Currently, it has yet to be confirmed whether Microsoft and/or Ustream plan to cancel their commitment to broadcast the pageant in lieu of Trump's remarks.
