====Emilio Azcárraga Jean (1997–2017)====
In April 1997, Milmo died and [[Emilio Azcárraga Jean]] succeeded him as the president of the company. Azcárraga Jean was 29 years old and he was one of the youngest executives in Mexico at that time. In December 1997, Televisa joined with other Mexican media companies to create a marathon known as ''[[Teletón (Mexico)|Teletón]]'', whose mission is to provide knowledge about physical disabilities, giving a strong message about respect, equality and support to people in these conditions. This movement from media, enterprises and Mexicans is reflected in the buildings created with the money from this Marathon, named Centros de Rehabilitación Infantil (CRIT). It is said that sponsors use it as a way to deduce taxes as the Teletón takes place at the end of the fiscal year and therefore allows companies to deduce their donations before declaring their incomes. Televisa introduced a new logo on 1 January 2001, putting eight lines instead of ten, and it closely resembles the previous logo. Changes include the sun now being a 3D ball, which in turn making the logo an eye, and the wordmark was brought back and in Helvetica Black.

There is complicity between Mexican media and government. Media and political power in México have a symbiotic relationship where the economic elites that control the media (Televisa and TV Azteca) are privileged in exchange for their support for the policies and actions of the government.<ref>·        Trejo, R. (2011, May). Bajo el imperio de la televisión. Panorama de la comunicación en México, pp. 75-86.</ref> In México the mass media owners are likely to have access to high levels of the Mexican government. On 3 May 2006, the community of San Salvador Atenco was violently repressed by the Mexican police who used excessive force and committed severe human rights violations. This event was one of the most violent repressions in the nation's history. This event is important because it shows how Televisa and TV Azteca were involved in inciting and supporting the repression of the people of Atenco by the government in México. The approval of the repression of Atenco by TV Azteca and Televisa can be seen as a clear example of the collaboration between mass media and government. Televisa and TV Azteca through their news programs support government policies without criticism and dismiss alternative voices to the dominant discourse. When this event occurred, mass media portrayed the farmers of Atenco as a radical social movement without reporting the reason behind the mobilization. In México the mass media are not there to provide objective information, México is under the shadow of authoritative journalism, in which they are only there to endorse an agenda that is aligned with the government.

In August 2014, Televisa announced it would acquire the remaining shares in Mexican cable firm Cablecom that it did not already own for a fee of around $653.96 million.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mexico-grupo-televi/mexicos-televisa-says-buys-rest-of-cablecom-for-654-million-idUSKBN0GE29N20140814|title=Mexico's Televisa says buys rest of Cablecom for $654 million|last=Alire Garcia|first=David|date=14 August 2014|work=Reuters|access-date=11 January 2018}}</ref> In September 2014, it was announced that [[Grupo Salinas]] would acquire Grupo Televisa's 50 percent stake in Mexico's third largest wireless operator [[Iusacell]] for a fee of $717 million.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mexico-iusacell/mexicos-grupo-salinas-buys-televisas-iusacell-stake-for-717-million-idUSKBN0H52EY20140910|title=Mexico's Salinas to buy Televisa Iusacell stake for $717 million|last1=Murray|first1=Christine|date=10 September 2014|work=Reuters|access-date=11 January 2018|last2=Sarmiento|first2=Tomás}}</ref> In January 2016, Televisa introduced a new branding, including a new logo design: an updated version of the company's logo from 1973, and a new slogan "Tu companía, tu más".
