About this user

In 2005, Dr. Pablo Rodriguez and Reynaldo Almonte led an effort to create a new concept for Spanish language radio using the National Public Radio model for the dissemination of news, education, dialogue and entertainment. The concept for Latino Public Radio began under an existing radio station, Exitos 88.1 F.M. broadcasting out of Providence Rhode Island. Mr. Rodriguez and Mr. Almonte shifted the programming for Exitos from simply entertainment to a source of objective information and education. What resulted was an outlet for the minority community to become empowered through intellectual awareness and to participate in serious and intelligent debate.
