First Spanish Language Radio Station in Middle Georgia
AM 1670 WMWR has replaced its TALK lineup with Spanish programing. The station is called "Viva" and it is the first station of its kind in the Macon market.
Last year Clear Channel converted their oldies station into a spanish language music station. That station is also called "Viva" and broadcasts on a couple FM signals in the Atlanta area.
This will definitely fill a void in the area. There is a large and rapidly growing hispanic population in Central Georgia and now they will have a local radio station that targets THEIR community and musical tastes.
