I've been checking popular sites in Venezuela and found that globovision.com doesn't send the mobile version when using Firefox OS simulator.
I can confirm that globovision.com serves desktop content to my Unagi. QA had listed this site as no action required when we added UA overrides for top Venezuela sites in bug 823364. (globovision.com is ranked #21 in VE according to Alexa.) Either QA missed something here or the site has regressed. Given its ranking in this market, this is a candidate for an UA override.

Leonard - Do you have a contact at globovision.com who you can speak to about supporting Firefox OS?

Can you confirm that Globovision has a mobile website? If it was indicated as no action required that's because there was no mobile site (at least at time of testing). On my iPhone I get their desktop site, on Firefox for Android and Chrome on my LG Nexus 4 I get their desktop site too.

Thanks for the clarification. I do get a mobile site in Firefox for Android (nightly) and the Android Stock browser on my Galaxy S2.
Lawrence, yes I have contact with globovision.com but they are using a third party platform so I'm waiting to be introduced to them
Seems fixed - I get a mobile site when spoofing desktop as FirefoxOS
