Conservative News network Newsmax is purchasing Spanish News/Talk “Radio Mambi” 710 WAQI and 1140 WQBA Miami from Latino Media Network.
Newsmax Radio will pay $1.26 million for WAQI and $540,000 for WQBA. The stations were part of LMN’s $60 million purchase of eighteen stations across the country from TelevisaUnivision in 2022.
WQBA would end its local programming in July 2025 and most recently has been carrying the government’s Office of Cuba Broadcasting’s “Radio Marti“. WAQI was set to drop its Spanish Conservative Talk programming last December, but ended up retaining a portion of the programming.
The purchase will mark Newsmax’s entry into radio ownership. The network provides audio streaming of its television content and produces the syndicated Rob Carson Show, which is fed to affiliates live from 12-3pm weekdays.
