GOP congressional hopeful George Santos said it's 'reprehensible' that George Soros would try to 'silence conservative thought' by taking over Hispanic radio stations.
Candidate George Santos, R-NY, said its ‘reprehensible’ that a liberal billionaire would try to ‘silence conservative thought.'Congressional candidate George Santos, R-N.Y., feels it's"reprehensible" that a group partially bankrolled by is set to purchase 18 Hispanic radio stations across 10 different markets across the United States.
The formation of the Latino Media Network, a new network set to be made up of the 18 Hispanic radio stations, was announced last week, and was partially financed by Lakestar Finance, an investment group affiliated with Soros Fund Management. The deal is pending regulatory approval but is expected to close later this year.
Jess Morales Rocketto, a former Hillary for America and AFL-CIO employee, and Stephanie Valencia, a former White House staffer during the Obama administration, are heading the $60 million venture, and say their purchase across the multitude of media markets will give them"access to one-third of the Hispanic population" within the U.S, according to Axios.
"They’re the last standing conservative radio station in the state – that's Latino, obviously, Latino conservative station – and to have Soros make a play for that, that just shows how desperate they are that the conservatives are gaining the momentum with the Latinos," Santos said.have fled countries with socialist views, so he expects them to see right through liberal talking points that could be placed on the stations, but Soros should be"ashamed" nonetheless.
"There's still millions of people in this country, especially in rural America, that still tune in to AM radio," he said."Especially the older generations, they enjoy that level of entertainment. And quite frankly, it's one of the last few places you can get unfiltered, uncensored conservative talk points."
