From Fox News: Miami’s longtime conservative, Spanish-language talk radio station will shutter on Friday, only three years after a controversial takeover by a George Soros-linked group.
Radio Mambí, long connected to Miami’s Cuban exile community and known for its anti-communist programming, was purchased — along with other Spanish-language stations — by the Soros-linked group in 2022. At the time, many conservatives, especially right-leaning Hispanics, called it an effort by the left to control the information reaching Spanish-speaking voters. The station is now signing off for good, citing “financial challenges.”
“For four decades, Radio Mambí has been a gathering place for South Florida and those devoted to the ideal of a free Cuba. Often the market leader in Spanish-language talk, our microphones welcomed presidents, governors, mayors, dissidents and political prisoners, cultural icons, and community voices. We stood with Miami through hurricanes and history. Much like our beautiful city, Radio Mambi, its audience, and the media industry are rapidly evolving, presenting financial challenges for many in the marketplace,” Radio Mambí General Manager Mike Sena told Fox News Digital.
“Sadly, as of 11:59 p.m. on December 12, we will close our live news/talk chapter and will forge on to new frontiers,” he continued. “We are proud of this legacy and deeply grateful to the colleagues, listeners and advertisers who made it possible.”
The report explains that, in order to honor commitments to current advertisers and the station’s sports broadcast partners, a very small team will remain on staff, and the station will play music and archived programming for the “foreseeable future.” However, all live programming staff will leave.
NewsBusters analyst Jorge Bonilla, who hosts a competing conservative talk show on Radio Libre, commented, “The death of Radio Mambí was always going to be the endgame once the anti-communist bastion fell into the hands of the Soros-backed Latino Media Network.”
Conservative host Lourdes Ubieta, who quit when the Soros group bought the station in 2022, told Fox News, “It took them less than three years to destroy these stations. This was always the plan. To silence conservative voices and ultimately eliminate Mambí — an enduring symbol of anti-communist radio in Florida and around the world.”
