KLOL goes from classic rock to Latino format (Houston, TX)
Channel 11 news staff ^

Posted on 11/12/2004 11:15:41 AM PST by Orange1998

KLOL, 101.1 FM announced Friday that station has changed formats. The station switched from a classic rock format to a Latino music format branded as Mega 101.

KLOL is now branded as Mega 101 FM. The station's web site was listed as under construction, but KLOL's former morning show hosts Walton and Johnson announced on their web site that they were informed Thursday night of the change.

The radio hosts stated on WaltonandJohnson.com that, "Thursday night Walton and Johnson were informed by lower-level management sources via a last-minute phone call that there would be no Walton and Johnson Show tomorrow. In it's place would be Hispanic music programs."

For a "new music" station, the Buzz sure plays a lot of songs that are over 10 years old.

Seems like we all thought of humblegunner.

¿Me pregunto donde el artillero-humilde está ocultando?

Need to ask the ACLU what % minority status white people need to decline to locally/nationally before they can start proclaiming "anglo pride" and not be called bigots/racists/supremacists.

As respect for Europe declines, will many Americans even want to proclaim "European-Ancestry Pride"?

This whole hyphenated American thing has gone on for too long without a resolution on the matter. It simply balkanizes the county.

There are minority only beauty pageants, music awards, and scholarships. Will a tanner America permit caucasians to engage in the same practice? Does anyone think it would at all even be good for America if we play this same racist game?

It like "In your Face". It's really annoying. I have to go through 6 spanish channels to get from Channel 2 to 13.

At least Spanish television still honors the variety show tradition.

I WOULD like to see SAP (secondary Audio Progamming) offered in ENGLISH since Fox et al offer progamming translated into Spanish.

Instead, the last I checked, one of the Spanish networks was broadcasting the in-store radio (music/sales) for Fiesta grocery stores.

Yes Sir, the Fair Play Rule! I tried the SAP feature and also found it only converts English to Spanish.

On PBS it will sometimes give you reading for the blind (or play by play of progamming). You can listen to the Chronicle while you FReep.

I doubt it is PC. I think it pays for a few of reasons. The listening audience may be tuning into satellite radio or listening to MP3s. Some listeners may even be moving to different formats like country, latino, hip-hop, top 40, or talk radio.

That is not a bad idea really. I would probably watch more spanish television there was an English translation.

The front page of the Houston Chronicle Business Section.

Islamics have their own banking system. They don't permit interest. It also provides a convenient cover to money laundering.
