Not necessarily. Many Mexican stations on the border aim their programming at the U.S. market just over the border. The days of the old “border blasters” like XERF are over, but XETRA covers San Diego, for example. Their programming is in English, but they are required to ID in Spanish and once a week play the Mexican national government program.

XTRA used to have an extensive sports talk lineup when I was going to school at UCSD, with hosts like Jim Rome, Chet Forte and Lee Hamilton going on about the Chargers, Padres, etc. Always a little startling to hear it interrupted once in a while by the Mexican president giving a speech.
