Yeah. One place that I read when I want to know what's up in the Spanish speaking world is El Pais from Spain, which has Latin American coverage too and an overall tone pretty similar to NYT. I think that "international paper of record" status may be what they are going for, vs. "translate America". I didn't say it made business sense (they admit as much in their own announcement), but that the assumption "Spanish = immigrants" is incorrect, and explicitly not what they were trying to do. We should avoid such a US centric view of the Spanish speaking world.
