https://radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2022/09/libre-200x200.jpgAudacy’s “Radio Libre 790 (https://www.audacy.com/radiolibre790)” WAXY South Miami FL re-added hosted talent to the station with the move to a mix of music and Spanish Conservative Talk.
Mornings will be branded as “Despierta Miami con Eli Escobar” with the Houston based Escobar anchoring a music intensive daypart. She also serves as a bilingual traffic reporter for the Audacy Miami cluster and previously held that role in Houston along with hosting middays at Hot AC “Mix 96.5 (http://www.mix965houston.com)” KHMX and mornings at Spanish CHR “Mega 101 (https://www.audacy.com/klol)” KLOL.
The talk programming will see the return of two former hosts from when Americano Media was providing programming to the station. Lourdes Ubieta joins the station to host from 11am to 2pm. Ubieta most recently was part of the national Americano Media lineup that was heard on WAXY until the network shut down (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/259824/waxy-moves-temporarily-to-spanish-oldies/) amidst financial difficulties in September. She began her career as a television anchor in Venezuela and later worked in Miami at WGEN-TV, “Actualidad 1040” WURN, and “Radio Mambi” 710 WAQI. Fellow former Americano Media host Jorge Bonilla will be heard in afternoons from 3-6pm. Bonilla is a longtime Spanish Conservative pundit and former congressional candidate. WAXY will continue to air jockless music in other dayparts.
WAXY had flipped from Sports to Spanish Conservative Talk in October 2022 (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/243265/audacy-to-launch-radio-libre-790-miami/) with Americano Media providing the programming. After the network ceased operations in early September after not paying employees for months and a failed buyout by Voz Media, Audacy moved the station (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/259824/waxy-moves-temporarily-to-spanish-oldies/) to automated Spanish Oldies as filler.
