New York and Mexico City, May 12, 2006--Grupo Televisa, S.A. ("Televisa";

"The board of directors of Televisa held a meeting on April 27, 2006 and
authorized Emilio Azcarraga, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Televisa, and Alfonso de Angoitia, Executive Vice
President of Televisa, in their judgment to enter into a group with others
and to make a plan or proposal for a transaction with the Issuer which, if
successful, would involve an increase in Televisa's minority shareholding
of the Issuer. By announcing this action by the Televisa board, it should

each step of a potential transaction.
