Maybe they are caught between a rock and a hard place , but it looks like Trump and his money have won the right to disparage Mexicans as he wishes . Settlement with Uivision, the largest Latino news source, has put journalists like Jorge Ramos is a very bad light. They are saying that it is ok for Trump's hooligans to throw Spanish speaking journalists out of their press conferences.

Although we dont know the particulars of the settlement, I dont doubt Univision paid off some substantial amount.
It was contract law from the start. You cant just ditch one because the other side is a jackass

"Trump’s lawyers countered his statements were “foreseeable” because he has a long history of bad-mouthing illegal immigrants, and Univision did not have the right to abandon the contests."

Thats all you need.
