Mexicanal in San Antonio.
December 29, 2008
The Mexicanal Network has signed a multicasting agreement with Newport Television to launch on WAOI-DT. Effective this month, viewers in San Antonio will be able to experience Mexicanal’s quality Spanish-language lineup, with regional news, sports, popular entertainment and culturally relevant programs direct from regions throughout Mexico (i.e., Jalisco, Michoacan, Guanajuato, Aguascalientes, Guerrero, Oaxaca, State of Mexico, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, Sonora, Hidalgo, Campeche and Yucatan).
“With such a large percentage of San Antonio residents having history, family ties and interest in the Mexican regions regularly covered by our programming, this was a natural progression for us,” said Luis Torres-Bohl, MEXICANAL’s President. “The Mexicanal Network has prided itself in connecting viewers with their home towns, and we look forward to working with WOAI-DT to continue this charge in San Antonio.”
