Traditional Hispanic radio stations play a huge role in keeping their communities engaged and informed. The upcoming political season brings new opportunities to Hispanic broadcasters and media professionals: Will you be ready for them?
A Hispanic Radio Conference panel discussion is designed to help capture dollars and listeners.
A Political and Social Issues in Hispanic Radio panel led by Beasley Media Group Director of Latin Formats Nio “Encendio” Fernandez is poised to present positive, successful examples of social and political coverage by Hispanic radio stations. The session is also primed for a discussion of the challenges and benefits of covering politics and social issues.
Plus, the panelists are armed with ways to “Show You the Money” that comes through down-ballot election coverage.
Joining Fernandez, known for his on-air and programming work at “Maxima 92.5” in Tampa and, before that, at radio stations in Miami, are:
- Joe Ferrero, Program Director/On-Air Personality, Davis Broadcasting/Atlanta
