Azteca America launches in Washington DC.

Azteca America announced the launch of WQAW Channel 69 this month in Washington DC. The over-the-air station is added to previously announced coverage on Comcast Cable in the market.

“Washington is the center of the country where ideas are created, discussed and enriched. We look forward to being an active part of these discussions as they relate to our dynamic Hispanic community,” said Azteca America Chairman Luis J. Echarte.

“We’re proud to be bringing the best in Spanish-language programming to this dynamic community, and we are committed to being an active participant in Washington DC,” said Nora Crosby, Vice President of Operations of Una Vez Mas.
Azteca America, through its Fundacion Azteca America non-profit arm, is supporting the Alcanzando Metas Foundation to further education with Hispanic youth, and is also a sponsor of the Congressional Caucus Institute’s events for Hispanic Heritage Month this year, as well as being a sponsor of the National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts.
