"TWC also ran The Weather Channel Latin America, which operated in Spanish in Mexico, Puerto Rico and South America, this network ceased operations in December 2002. The service's three original anchors were Paola Elorza, Sal Morales and Mari Carmen Ramos who left the channel within a year of its launch and went on to work for Univision in Miami, Telemundo in Los Angeles and CNN International. At one point, there was also a Portuguese version in Brazil. "

"The wiki about The Weather Channel that anyone can edit "

Looks like you copied and reworded a Wikipedia article. Looks real great that you couldn't even put it into your own words. Changing the word "three" to "3" doesn't count. I think I trust Wikipedia more than this.

You even copied portions from the Weatherscan article I typed (i.e. most of the timeline) without giving permission from me first. That's plagiarism to me, and to everyone else who contributed to that article on Wikipedia. I ask that you remove it.

Actually, as far as I know, Voss is with AccuWeather right now. (At the very least, she was with them at some point after TWC LM shut down; I'm not sure if she's still there.)

TWCLM no longer exists (broadcast-wise). Voss is now with Accuweather.

Issue resolved. :P
