The Fusion Media Group (FMG) is a division of Univision Communications. The company was launched in April 2016 after Univision bought out Disney's stake in Fusion.net. While Univision is focused on serving Hispanic America in Spanish, FMG is the company’s division dedicated to serving audiences across platforms, cultures and languages.

Operations

The Root, an online magazine of African-American culture, was acquired by the company in 2015.

Univision Story House was introduced in May 2016 as the content development and production unit of Univision, but to be managed by FMG.
