Best of luck in this exciting & welcome endeavor.
Much needed & much appreciated & about time.~

Congrats

The 18 stations are in Los Angeles, New York City, Miami, Houston, Chicago, Dallas, San Antonio, McAllen, Fresno and Las Vegas. The group said the stations are mostly broadcasting sports, entertainment and music programming.

The group said the radio stations they plan to purchase will reach one-third of Latinos in the U.S., about 20 million people.

Latino Media Network is led and founded by Stephanie Valencia, a former Obama administration staffer who now heads Equis Research, a Latino polling and research firm, and Jess Morales Rocketto, also at Equis and a veteran of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton campaigns.

A long string of Latinos are investors in the purchase, which still requires Federal Communications Commission approval. Not all are Democrats.

Move over RW Radio.
The timing could not be better.
Democracy is on the line.
Thank you...💙

The power players uniting behind Latino Radio Network says it all.

I knew they would not forget us, just never knew how they'd re-gather and wow! What a force to be reckoned with.

Thank you. Thank You.

Hate radio took over a bunch of stations in the south and Southwest and are turning people stupid. This will definitely help!

This is great news.
