A Better Vista

When Orlando and Mayela Rosales started Media Vista a dozen years ago, all they started with was a camera and an editing station that cost $15,000.

Today, Media Vista has become the dominant Hispanic media company in the region that stretches from Charlotte County to Marco Island. Its properties include a television station affiliate of Azteca America, a magazine, and a website that all produce local content.

Now, Media Vista has an agreement to purchase the Univision station in Fort Myers and two other stations in Kansas City and Minneapolis. The deal is scheduled to close in the next few months for an undisclosed sum.
