MIRAMAR, FLA. — NBCUniversal Local’s Hispanic-focused Telemundo Station Group has appointed a VP of its Telemundo News Service. It is a promotion from within, with her shifting into the new role on Monday (1/26).
Taking the new role is Yarilys Domenech, rising from TNS’s Director of News.
Domenech continues to report to Ozzie Martínez, who serves as EVP of Multiplatform News, Original Programming & Standards for the Telemundo Station Group.
TNS, the centralized news content and coordination hub supporting 31 Telemundo-owned stations and a nationwide network of affiliate stations, delivers shared news content, breaking news coordination and production support.
As Director of News, Domenech has led news operations across TNS bureaus in Miami; Washington, D.C.; and Mexico City.
“Yarilys is a deeply respected newsroom leader whose vision, operational expertise, and commitment to journalistic excellence have been instrumental to the growth and success of Telemundo News Service,” Martínez said. “She has helped build TNS into a vital resource for our stations and affiliates, strengthening our ability to deliver timely, culturally relevant news to Spanish-speaking communities across the country. This promotion is a well-deserved recognition of her leadership and impact.”
Domenech joined TNS in 2013 as a desk coordinator and producer, playing a key role in the launch and development of the service. She was promoted to manager in 2015 and to her present role in 2020.
Born and raised in Puerto Rico, Domenech began her career with Telemundo Puerto Rico’s Telenoticias in 2004 as a production assistant. She later joined Telemundo, contributing to Levántate, the first daily live morning show produced in Puerto Rico for a national U.S. audience, and Un Nuevo Día. She relocated to Miami in 2010.
